Title: Does Compac sell a total boat cover?
Post by: captronr on June 18, 2016, 03:15:19 PM
Anyone bought one?  Price (I'll sit down to hear it)?  Quality?

My boat sits outside under heavy tarps, but birds keep building NASTY nests under the tarps.  I hate to face that mess each time I uncover it.

I looked online, but all I could find are speed boat covers.

Thks.

I asked this same question when I bought my boat 3 years ago.  The answer was no.  Any custom canvas shop should be able to do it. The numbers I was quoted were in the $1500 range.  I took a pass.  Like most things in life, with enough money, it can be done.

My boat sits uncovered on a lift in SW Florida year round.  It has held up well and just needs a buff/wax every six months or so to look like new.  I apply a couple of coats of Cetol every year or so to the wood trim.  I just hose the boat off to remove the bird poop and dirt before I take it out.  Easier than cleaning a cover.
