I bought a cover from Overtons waaay back in 2000 but I finally need to replace it so looking for suggestions. It fit perfect over rails and held up great but a rod holder tore through over the winter so I fear the end is near. The boat is mostly stored indoors so this was only the 3rd winter outdoors and I always cover when I travel so I can’t say enough about how well this one held up.

I say all this because I went on Overtons today to buy a new one but not sure if the still sell it or if so which one. I found one they claim is made to fit my boat but the photo is completely wrong so I’m sceptical. Suggestions?

I own a Mills Bimini and console cover so I understand the quality nut I don’t like how their mooring cover doesn’t cover the rails... and I’m cheap.

Here’s he one on Overtons https://www.overtons.com/product/deta...p;i=303059

If you still have the shipping manifest then the part number should be on it and just re-order that part number, call to verify the number is still good for your cover.

I’m actually pretty good about keeping records but after 18 years I didn't even bother looking since model numbers / names change. Should have bought 2 😀

I’m looking at the one below and if nothing jumps out at me this is probably the way I go. I lost my parking spot in the garage so for me a good cover is a must.

8 oz. Performance Poly-Guard® - Custom Boat Covers

Part #: 10304P Boat Cover
USA MSRP*: $357.43
