Boat Covers

 28 Jun 22:

When we do have time to go boating, the last thing we want to do is have to clean the boat before heading out. Here's some of the reasons we like boat covers, they keep yard debris, tree bits and bird poop off of the boat. Another important feature is that a well fit cover will keep critters from turning the boat into a condo.


We like covers made from Sunbrella. Sunbrella fabrics are designed to be breathable, so they are water repellent but not completely waterproof. It is important to ensure that air can circulate, so that a cover does not create a mildew factory, and the boat can dry out if it gets wet. For the same reasons we don't store sails on our boats long term.
