Default Full boat covers for towing

I've seen a few outerlimits boats with full covers for towing that looked very nice and form fitted. I talked with one of the owners and they said that outerlimits had it made for them. It almost seemed like a stretchy material that was skin tight to the boat and it went all the way down the hull sides and strapped around the trailer beams. Has anyone had these made for other boats? I'm interested in having one made.

Marine Concepts makes the covers for a lot of the high end boats out there. Envy is one off the top of my head.

On much smaller scale yes. Over here all the 18 - 21ft ski race boats have them. Made from marine grade water proof (more or less has a waxy film on inside) canvas and a soft underlay. The upholsterer measure whole boat and make covers to form fit.
No idea where you get it done over there?

Those covers are sweet!

Only problem for me is I would only use it if the boat was PERFECTLY CLEAN so the inside of the cover stays clean and doesn't scratch the boat. Then the next part is how do you roll the cover up and keep the inside from getting dirty.......

Guess I'm just OCD about dirt and scratches......

I wonder what the cost is on those and do they come in other colors besides black.

I would think black would get smokin hot!

Looks like an Awesome cover

I inquired earlier in the year and I think the price was $5,700 for my 35' Fountain.

Keep the boat clean and I think stuffing into a duffle bag would work best.

You can get them in many different colors, and they are all felt lined so not to scratch the finish.
