Boat Cover Question

[proair133]

I have been meaning to get a new Cover for my 2001 Pro Air Nautique. I came across a brand new factory nautique cover on craigslist for cheap, but its for a 07-09 210 (still 4 point tower). My biggest concern is the tower arms having different spacing. I am very doubtful it will fit, but anyone have any idea if its worth a try?

how cheap is cheap?

better bet is to probably call zach at n3 up. This winter he had some new-old stock covers for <$100. I got one and the quality is ok but the fit isn't perfect around the one tower leg. It is for the correct boat but they just didn't measure correctly. Actually I would probably let mine go for cheap if interested.

$100 bucks, still in the box...

that's cheap. maybe worth a shot. although in saying that, I had an ill fitting cover for my last boat and it grew to be a real annoyance after a while! do you get a lot of rain where you're at?

Yeah Im thinking it might be worth a shot! But the boat is in Wisconsin now, and it may be coming down to Orlando for the winter, where Im located) and in the winter we hardly get any rain at all. So that may not be a big issue.

Glad someone else started this thread. I have a 2000 San and the cover is terrible. If it rains ill be swimming in it. Got any advice for getting one that actually prevents the rain from coming in? I live in Tennessee and it rains all the time! Willing to pay the cash for a good one, but need it sooner rather than later. Thanks for any help

Your best bet on keeping the rain out would be a coversports cover, but you are going to wait several weeks to get one, since they are all made to order. They also are not cheap, but they are the best cover for your model of boat (same as mine).

I looked at it this way. I could pay $40,000 to build a boat garage or I could pay a little under $1,000 to buy a coversports cover. I bought the cover.

Thanks chexi... I'll look into them tonight.
