Cover suggestions
I bought a Sea Ray 200 Sundeck this year and it has good canvas covers on
the bow and seating area. I would like to cover the whole thing since it needs to sit out in the snow all winter in PA. Any suggestions on a semi-fitted cover outfit? I'm not looking to spend a fortune getting a fully custom cover but don't want just any cheap tarp either. Suggestions? -trevor |

Geez. You sure don't leave much room for suggestions. Don't want to spend
money on a fitted cover, but you don't want a cheap tarp either!! I'll tell ya....a couple of well placed 2x4's and a decent quality plastic tarp PROPERLY bungied to trailer will last a long time. I put one over my tritoon(that already has a fitted cover too)every year for the last 3 years. No rips or tears. Just string it along the bottom and make sure you bungie it so the wind can't get in. The 2x4's placed under the tarp are used to slope it...so water can't lay and puddle. I've made an "A" frame using them and lamenated the uprights with plywood gussets.

Suggestions? -trevor After being quoted $ 1500.00 for a fitted canvas cover I went to a local auto/hardware type store and found a 22' x 18' canvas tarp (made in China) on sale for $ 120.00 CDN. That should do me. Since it's a sailboat, I'll use the mast as a 'ridge pole' to hang the tap over. Someone said this months issue of 'Good Old Boat' has plans for building a frame. |

There are generic covers available ... I use one on my 18' I/O ... if that's
too expensive, maybe just store yer boat upside down :-) "Trevor Miller" wrote in message ervers.com...
