John, the snaps were installed at the factory to support the standup
boat cover that you would use while underway.
This cover came as standard equipment with this boat.
I did order the optional stem to stern custom fit travel and summer
storage cover because Legend claimed you could trailer it down the
highway installed on the boat.


OK, but I'd still remove the snaps and fill the holes. I'd never trailer
a boat down the highway
with the cover on regardless of the manufacturer's claims.


Depends on the cover. I have towed my boat thousands of miles in 20 years,
with a snap on trailer cover. Top Gun material, and am on the 2nd cover
since the boat was new in 1991. Just towed 500 miles round trip to Shelter
Cove, CA last weekend. Great fishing. Lots of Rock Cod,mbyte only one
under sized salmon.
