I would like to find a cover for my Mark Twain 180v - 1969 model. As you can imagine, it's not worth a whole lot of money, but it's in good whape and I want to keep it that way.

What's the best one to look at? I'm wanting the $200 price range trailerable, with a good fit.

Re: Best Cover

My advice is not appropriate for everyone's situation......but what I'm doing is using a sub-$50 cover I got at Wal-Mart. The reason is that where I park my boat during the season is under a ton of trees and everything get's absolutely nasty. It would make me sick to spend a couple hundred on a cover and have it get crappy in only a couple weeks. The Wal-Mart covers do a good job of keeping the water out if you properly support them. Mine has lasted me over 2 seasons but is about shot at this point. I'll get another one the beginning of next year. Probably not what you're looking for but just a thought for anyone storing their boat in a woodsy area.

Check the Iboats cover finder.I just bought a Sharkskin cover for my 21 ft cuddy,it was about 265 bucks.Your size should be less.I was very impressed with the quality of the cover.It beads water like a freshly waxed new car..;)
