You never told me that Dave! Lol. Fortunately, I have no issues. I only tow with the cover snapped on. It keeps the boat clean, more streamlined, looks great, and protects the windshield from stones, etc.

Lol very true that would suck! My truck is just open no camper or cover, but luckily I only tow it occasionally as it stays in dry storage. I've seen people though towing boats and their cover is flapping around, I get around them quick don't want it flying back and covering up my windshield! :eek:

Same thing for a full mooring cover that I used to trailer with it bunggied to the trailer. That thing would puff up 3' taller than the deck. The ONLY cover that offers a warranty to trailer down the road is a ShurLast Trailering cover with the ratchet strap system. I have one in grey for a windshield 232 if you are interested.

Is this the company and cover you're talking about?

Yep! I personally worked with the owner Sam and making all the Baja model patterns. Not that many boat companies are lucky enough to have patterns done by Commercial Sewing to even offer them. I know Formula, and 4 Winns have, but I don't know many others. They don't sell direct and CS likes to only sell to OEM's or larger distributers, but I am lucky enough to have an account with them for all the help I provided in the past on the Baja product line.

Your right! First thing next week I am going to get some tags made to sew to every cover we produce with our "Logo, care and matainence, and Warnings"
