Boat Covers

[Rafter1]

I just purchased a used Alumacraft 175 Trophy Sport Elite and need a cover for it. A custom cover costs around $1500.00 at Waynes Upholstry which is a bit over the budget. Just wondering what any of you use and approximate cost. Thanks

I was going to start a thread about this but can just bump this one.

What about custom covers. My boat has all the snaps on it for a custom cover, but I am missing the cover itself. Anyone ever go somewhere to get one of these made to replace an old snap on cover? If so, where? ball-park cost? Anyone ever attempt to make one yourself?

Costco ussually brings in generic covers that are not that bad and only cost about $80.00.

It has lasted very well so far. You can allways do a little tweeking with the straps etc if you want to make tarping/detarping faster.

x3. Annette has done many many covers and will not disappoint you. My 1725 Rebel XL Sport which has the full windshield came in around $1100. You can have it customized anyway you want it.

I just picked up a nose cone today from Annette at Sew Wut to protect the boat from gravel rash etc. It's double lined heavy duty canvas customized for my boat with a soft liner stitched on the inside so it doesn't rub on the paint.

Simply awesome. Will post some photos on the weekend. $850 for this part.
