With so many boat covers, which is the right boat cover for me?

You may be considering whether a boat cover is essential or not. Whatever boat you own, small or large, new or old, you will need to protect it. Protecting your boat from the weather as well as from dirt and air pollutants will extend the life of your boat. Boat covers as you may well imagine come in a range of sizes and materials.

When it comes to selecting a cover for your boat, you may have several options. Universal boat covers can be easily adapted to fit many makes and model of boat. If you are not concerned with having a boat cover that fits the your boat exactly, then universal boat covers are usually the most cost effective solution. Universal boat covers are suitable for storing your boat but are not recommended for use when you are towing your boat. Typically universal boat covers are made from lighter, less expensive fabrics.

Semi-custom boat covers are designed to fit boats of a general style and size and will provide a better fit than a universal cover. Semi-custom covers are suitable for storing and mooring your boat, but in many cases can be used when you are trailering your boat. Most semi-custom boat covers are made with good quality materials with a 5 year warranty..

The best fitting boat cover option is a custom fit boat cover. As you might expect, this type of boat cover is the most expensive, but offers complete protection for your boat. With a pattern made from your model and year of boat, the cover will accommodate all standard stock features, like side consoles, trolling motors and windshields. Custom boat covers are often more aesthetically pleasing and can be bought in a range of colours to match or compliment the design and theme of your boat.

Choosing the right style boat cover and the right material can reduce the amount of maintenance required and the upkeep of your boat.
