Default Boat Cover

This is probably a dumb question but I'll ask it anyway!

Currently when our boat is on the trailer in the back yard, I cover the
mast and furled headsail with a long rectangular piece of material and =
the
rest of the boat with a fitted cover that just goes to the rub rail:

inefficient to me and I think I'd like to have one cover that does all,
making one long tent. Does anyone have one cover now for a boat on a
trailer AND mast? If so, could they provide pictures?

My concerns a

(a) the overall weight of the cover, we're planning to use roughly 17 =
yards
of 60" wide sunbrella, and=20

(b) the unusual stress on the spreaders caused by the hanging sunbrella.

I'm beginning to think our current cover arrangement may be just as well.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Loren
