    Default Looking for a boat cover


    I have a 2016 Crestliner Retreiver Deluxe 18/60 with a side console. I am looking for a good quality boat cover for it. I have found several on the Internet, but would like folk's input as to what is a good brand at a good price and where to find it. What do you use? I don't want to spend anymore than I have to, but I know quality cost.
    I may be getting older but I refuse to grow up.

    I got one for my Carolina Skiff 198 DLV from Boat Covers Direct....search them on the internet and see if they can fix you up. Very good quality and very good service. Have had mine for 2 years and very happy with it.

    I got a new cover from Cabelas last year and so far it's working good.It's the 600 denier model and I got it on sale for around $150.00.Before that I had one from the Boat dealer that cost about $400.00 and lasted 6 or 7 years so I'm kinda curious how long this new one will last.

    ME TOO ME TOO, they get the basic pattern from the mfg or find old plans for almost every model of boat and make a custom cover. They made one for my '89 Crappie Master and it fits almost as good as a full custom job. Mines made out of the sunbrella material, not cheap, but ask me in 7 or 8 years how it held up. It's warranted for 10 years.

    I've ordered from Iboats.com for the last 2 boats I've had. Got their semi-custom covers for a Lowe I had, and for my current Triton aluminum. Both fit like they were custom made. Excellent covers and good price.

    Tumacs custom boat covers. I have one and would be ringing their phone off the hook if I ever had to get another one.

    seems the 150.00 ones will last 3-4 yrs and the 400 .00 ones last about 5-6 yrs. Pretty much a wash dollar for dollar . JMO.

    You're right. This is 3rd year on mine and it's just about done in. Paid somewhere around $200 for it.
