Good day,
what would you recommned for a replacement cover?
The canvass on mine is decent, but the plastic windows are original 1985 and crack/break more with little movement. I'm thinking of going to CT to buy a 100$ one for now, or a big blue tarp lol.
Any suggestions?

This a storage top or a top you boat with it on? C&M in Edmonton does nice work. Or Rivers edge custom covers builds good stuff

How bad is the cover? The mrs has been fixing them. The one for my boat was 6k usd. Was cheaper to buy her the industrial sewing machine. She has fixed quite a few now and wall tents too. If its just the windows that's easily fixable. She has the plastic UV protection stuff to do it properly. Zippers too if needed

I use the Canadian Tire cover for winter storage, summer parking when I am not using the boat for a few weeks.
I got a little creative and made a support frame from PVC piping and connectors to help with heavy snow load.
I remove all my regular summer covers and store in the heated shop for winter.
Have never had to replace or repair covers yet. Touch wood.

If it's got windows that's probably the moaring cover,I'd use a separate cover for storing the winter to save that priceless cover for when you are using the boat.

Checked your other thread ya I wouldn't travel or store that boat with that cover,I use a travel tarp that also protects the windows, a storage tarp for winter,and that moaring cover is for when you are partying at the lake and it's raining.
