I have looked for a boat cover for my Baker, cannot find anything that would work.  I found a guy that can make me one, however the only material he uses is that heavy tarp material they use for the top of stock trailers.  This is kind of rubber coated.  The material will not breath but I think there will be enough space for that to happen, pluse I will see if the can install some sort of vents on it.  What do ya'll think?  One thing about it, it should last forever.

I had a boat cover that was made out of that rubberized stuff , it had flaps like a tent in it with a mesh type material under the flaps .

Besides, it'll still be a lot cheaper then what you have in the trailer.......  :smile17:

You looking for something to cover it just while parked or something that can be used as a tow cover?

I got ya.. Good cover done right, made for the boat, that will hold up to towing... gonna cost. I've heard up around the $1000 range.

Like Tim said, take it in & tell 'em what ya want. But when you do try saying "la la la la I can't hear you la la la" when they start to mention price as it may help distract your wallet from the pain you  are about to inflict upon it, lol! :grin:

lol, ya I don't know about all that... :cheesy:

One thing to think about if gettin a custom made cover for your boat, is that if you make any modifications later it may affect the way the cover fits. Cody's Warhawk came with a nice fitted snap on cockpit cover, but after adding an intercooler, the cover won't fit anymore....  engine is too tall. Just something to think about. :wink:
