Boat covers

[mattj]

Hello , any good suggestions on a online supplier for a new boat cover. not looking to spend a fortune but trying to avoid the generic big box store replacement covers.

Thanks

Matt.

Hey Matt,

I would try contacting Ron or Dan. I'm sure that they can set you up with a good quality cover that would fit your boat perfectly.

My second suggestion would be to get one made from a local upholsterer to you. I've had very good luck with that in the past. You just need to check around for one that does good work.

I would really try to steer clear of just ordering one online unless they have the exact dimensions of your boat. I've never seen one of those that fits really good or lasts and I know quite a few guys who have bought them.

Just my .02.

Standard affordable OEM fitted covers are still available from Dan or I, they are on my parts page.

Hello Ron, Are your covers suitable for winter storage and travel. Lots of snow up here, and lots of travel.


Thanks

Matt.

I use the std. cover & have trailered with them since 1979, they have a perimeter draw string, & loops or optional nylon straps with buckles to tie them to the trailer. I really don't like remembering the days when i shoveled snow, but I did use them with snow loads, it helps if you have a kid brother that you can send out to brush the snow off occasionally.

Sounds good.  I will be place an order this week.

If one wants to keep your graphics sharp, consider purchasing a "waterline" cover.  To get a good fit, it will probably have to be custom made.
