Another cover question........input needed.

[Mike(nj)]

Hi all, I've searched and searched this board for awhile. I'm willing to pay good money for a real nice cover. Anyone buy one of the Shoremaster covers from here on iboats?? I don't have a garage so it has to stay outside year round. I'm guessing from what i've read that the sunbrella cover are the best. Is the Prism made from sunbrella?? <br /><br /> Thanks for any help! Mike

If your boat is going to live outside than you need 2 covers. If you’re willing to pay good money for a good cover than have them custom made for your boat. First cover should be light and made from a uv protected, breathable polypropylene based material and will double as a travel cover so have it made for that purpose. Second cover needs to be mounted on a frame and made from good quality heavy duty canvas. Set the frame up like a tent with a foot or so of clearance around the boat. The top cover will need to be treated with a water proofing agent each year. If you go to the trouble of doing the above your boat will look like new for ever.
