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.

There are dozens of variables that affect the wind going across the boat. A truck with a shell on it, vs. open bed vs. tonneau cover, etc. etc. There is no specific variable. Your cover might be fine for 100 miles, but pass one 18 wheeler at 55 mph on a two lane road; and whooosh.

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!

For every cockpit cover we make I tell the customer there are NO refunds if you choose to trailer with it in place. I have done it myself, but only if the weather was real bad and I went 55 mph while looking back more than forward. 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.

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.
