Default Fountain cockpit cover

Hello, my cockpit cover is missing, and I need a nice new one.

Can Fountain boats make one for me?

Or possibly Reggie's new shop.

Thanks much for any assistance on this!!

2008 38 foot.

Not sure where you are but most upholstery places can make a nice one. They look at the boat and make it perfect.

I got one directly from fountain last year. Silver plastic type material with built in vents. Came with no snaps, snaps are installed by you to fit your boat directly. Think it was about 700 bucks shipped. Nice, lighter than canvas and folds easy. Fits under my center bench seat in cabin along with a throwable with room to spare.

Bill where do you live? I had one made last year here locally and they did a fantastic job. I had no Idea you could get one from Fountain still. I might have gone that route first because I assure you, mine cost more than $700.....

Should clarify that the cover I received from Fountain is very light weight, I would give it maybe 2 years of life if always in direct sunlight. Canvas would be a better option for someone that keeps their boat outside. Its perfect for me, lightweight and easy to handle

Hey guys, thanks a bunch for the great information!

I think I will call fountain, call Reggie, and then check local, which is NW Michigan, traverse city area.

Everyone treated me great for a first time poster, but long time lurker!!!
