Rankin Cover Group Buy 2008

Perhaps they assume that the rear tower legs are the same distance from the rubrail? I think that they might be, but like I said, I printed the form from their website and filled it out based on that. Perhaps I will give them a call and see what they say.

Ive submitted the first round of orders to Rankin. Everyone who has given me a completed order form should have recieved an email. If I somehow missed you, please let me know! Those whose orders have been submitted, please contact Rankin with your payment information.

Thanks to everyone for their interest!

I need to re-check a set of the measurements, but I would like to order this week. Is the deal still running?

You bet. I plan to submit another group of orders this week.

TRBenj,

Would you be kind enough to post a photo showing how the Rankin cover fits on the stern of your 1990 Ski Nautique. I bought a cover in Feb. that arrived today, but there were no instructions. Thanks for any help on this.

Bert, I really need to take a pic- unfortunately I dont have one. Here is a pic of a '93 that will get you started, though:



My '90 is a bit different, as I dont have the grab handle. Instead, Im able to put the straps that extend from the top of the cover through the grooves in the platform (I removed the plexi). What you cant see in the pic is that on all 90-96 boats, you'll want to attach the rubrail rope/straps to each other UNDER the platform (I go through the brackets). This part was not intuitive the first time I put the cover on. The padded pouches will end up right on the corners of the hull to protect the gel.

Sounds like a great deal! Does anybody know if these covers have the felt liner where the cover contacts the Gel coat? Based on this thread and the threads from last year, they are easily towable?

[TRBenj]

Keith, I just responded to your PM, but Ill post here so everyone can see the anwer:

They do have felt in critical places- though Im not sure if the new ones have felt everywhere it touches the gel. This is one change that Rankin was considering making within the last year. I got my cover a year ago with the first group buy (so mine doesnt have 100% coverage with felt) and mine does not chaff the gel at all. I towed over 2500 miles last summer and it worked great. Ive got the deck of my boat buffed to a nice shine, so if it the cover want tight, Id know it!

Tim,

Have you submitted any more orders? I haven't heard anything or recieved any sort of communication from Rankin. It's going to be time to get the boat out soon and it would be great to have the new cover available.

Thanks,

Eric

I just submitted the second round of orders. Everyone who had sent me a completed order form should have received an email. Please contact Rankin at your earliest convenience with your payment info. If you sent me an order form but did not receive an email, please let me know ASAP!

Thanks to everyone for your interest!

I ordered mine today-6 week lead time-accepted the Planetnatiuque price plus $50 for a zipper and transom cover. Looking forward to a pole free snap free existance.

Thanks Tim for setting these up.
