You can sew the open end closed. Just use an overcast stitch by hand.
Hmm, Now there's an idea! Old timer brain forgets... I used to do this with regular bulk coil zipper for many projects but wasn't concerned with water resistance, I guess I could do the same here, and seal the stitching. Do you know if the zipper material adheres to seam grip or something like it?

You can also find them at JoAnn Fabrics, one in your area could save S&H.
