Old Ironmaker Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 Here we go, lost another text, new PC new buttons. I need a temporary boat cover. The old one has ripped stem to stern with a wind storm the other day. I don't expect it to last long but I need one while the boat waits in line to get shrink-wrapped. How long a cover for the 19'6" StarCraft. I will remove the tall casting seat up front and put in one of the passenger seats folded down. About 26" high folded down. Any recommendations please? A few hundred bucks is fine. I have seen some CTC specials not much thicker than saranwrap.
Rattletrap2 Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 I had mine made by " Covers by Robert" in Brampton this year. $600, but it is a travel cover and very well done. Motor cover is included. I was a bit skeptical when I booked my appointment, but pleasantly surprised when I picked it up! He did a really nice job!
Old Ironmaker Posted November 20, 2018 Author Report Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) We have a very good custom cover shop here in Dunnville too. Looking for a temporary cover like they sell at Crappy Tire until I can get mine made this spring. If it were in the budget I would do it over the winter but still need something to cover it now. I don't think she can match that deal though. 700 bucks for a travel cover, no engine covers. Sunbrella. Edited November 20, 2018 by Old Ironmaker
DanD Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 convertaboat Go see Bert. Tell him what you're looking for and I'm sure he'll be able to help. My sister worked for him before she passed away. She never had a bad thing to say about Bert and was impressed with what he would do for his customers. Dan.
DRIFTER_016 Posted November 20, 2018 Report Posted November 20, 2018 I'm cheap, so I buy my covers off Ebay. Only issue is the length of time they take to get here. I park inside a portable garage so they just need to keep the dust out of my boat and as such I don't need a high quality cover. The last one I bought lasted me 10 years before finally getting destroyed when I used it to cover my hovercraft for the ride back from Wisconsin last spring. Currently have a super cheap $50 one keeping the dust out.
