Eric,

Just get a decent piece of canvas cut to size as this can be used for all sorts of things apart from a water crossing blind.

Uses like;

(a) ground sheet for crawling under the car
(b) a groundsheet under you tent
(c) sun shade off the side of the car with two poles
(d) winch rope air break.

I have had a piece for years and I am suprised at the use it gets.......

As has been said you can get 1/2 decent waterproof blue plastic canvas over here from most hardware shops they are very cheap (less than 10 bucks dont ask me what that is in Euros or francs) that you can tie to the front if the need arises and well they have heaps of other uses and are cheap enough to throw away if ripped or dirty and you can afford to carry a few spares

Eric,
I bought a small (ish) tarp from the local hardware store for AU$1.99, I lift the bonnet and shut the bonnet on it. Quick easy and cheap, after a few water crossings it gets a few holes in it around the centre where the bonnet catch goes through, for the cost of it I just throw it in the bin and get a new one. The water bras are very nice, but when they are wet you have to store them in another bag outside the car to save soaking everything inside. If I had the dosh I supose I'd buy one but at AU$1.99 a go it's hard to justify.

If you are in vic give websters driver training a call there info is on here they make and sell a very good one and its cheap also

Why would you need one, does the troopy not have a snorkel? Fan's through radiators are only and issue if your viscous coupling is jammed and or you don't rev the motor to free the fan before you cross.

Other reasons for using a blind? Maybe I missed somthing?

But to answer your question, I have a cheap tarp in the tool box for laying on when doing repairs in the bush, just happens that it would fit accross the front of the car if required to. $10 from bunnings and a couple of oky straps will do the trick.

I bought an army hoochie which is about ten feet square from a army surplus store in australia for about $50au and it is reinforced on the edges and has heaps of eyelets and is water proof.
