The 1100 I got quoted was to cover windshield, 2 poles vs the just 1 I have now and add a zipper access instead of having to unsnap the whole cover. Don't know how much the zipper access was but that's using sunbrella too.

Sorry I personally don't see the point of 2 poles. Cockpit area isn't that big. I already got burned by 1 interior place down here. Sh*t work. Took the sh*t work to this place they saw everything wrong with it I saw. Let them redo it. Looks awesome. Thier price was real close to sh*t price just a little more. So with that said ill pay more to have it done right.

I understand people pay more or less for things in different parts of the country not debating that. I'm glad others are getting it cheaper. The reason mine doesn't cover windshield was my choice. The boat already had snaps on it. Wanted them used.

You need two poles so water won't collect on the sun pad. With one pole it will. I have to also agree the price seems outrageous. For my 242 it cost me $650.00 out the door with sunbrella and over the windshield. I need to have one made now for my 292 but the interior is only 1 foot longer so it should be the same price.

That is a nice looking cover, never seen one done like that.

This place came highly recommended so if I overpaid that's on me. I want quality. I was quoted 800 by the place who did crap work so I was happy to more for quality work. It rained the other day and full runoff no pooling. If I ever notice water pooling I will make an adjustment. Boat sits at the house so it'll never be out of sight. I will overpay for quality. They are slowly redoing entire interior doing away with all wood. Will be all synthetic.

I was just trying to show an upgrade. Obviously not up to everyone's standards here but I'm happy with it and that matters most.
