I am looking for mooring/ trailer cover for a newly restored 1978 13' I installed a transom bracket on as well. Can anyone refer me to a place to get a cover? Thanks!
Jim

Try Overtons (online). They have a variety of types and colors at OK pricing. If you want the best, contact Mills (sponsor on this website).

While Mills was the OEM for classic whalers that does not make them the best. Just the OEM manufacture. Mills does make a nice product and many are happy with their products. The products we have had made for our Whalers and other boats by our Local shop I personally think are nicer. But that is just me. Mills or any custom made cover will be on the higher side of pricing. If cost is an issue you should be able to find a nice sunbrella mooring/trailer cover from Overtons, I-Boats.com, or many other places for a reasonable price.

Talk a look at this place I had good luck with them. Select Boston Whaler under the model pull down.

Thanks for all of the imput. I have checked the regular cover dealers and have found thet they only have covers for 13's in the 1980's and up. Should I be safe with a cover from a diffrent year?

Expo, I just had North Atlantic Sails make a nice navy blue sunbrella cover for my 1969. Competitive price and they have the measurements. Fits terrific. They're in Newport RI and go to the cape all the time.
