I purchased a "medium" one of these. It's kind of roomy for a Montauk, but does the job. Actually bought another one and tossed it over the RPS.

(Hint: you can actually order them from "that big box store no one likes" and pick it up free for cheaper.)

hello Joe,
I just went thru the same thing with my 1995 Dauntless 15. You can go with a generic set of covers at a real low cost as hc803 suggests or if you want a nice color matched center console cover and RPS cover Mills will charge $1000- $1500 for a set. I checked with my local canvas guy and he wanted $800 to make custom ones. In the end I bought some nice red sunbrella fabric and UV resistant thread to match the "colors" of my boat from Sailright.com and had my sister in law use her Sears Sewing machine to whip me up a set using the old center console cover as a pattern and patterning the RPS myself. I get compliments wherever I go and the total material cost was around $170.00 including everything even the heavy duty needles.
