Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions on custom boat covers? I'm preparing to have one installed on my Lund boat and have heard great things about Sunbrella fabric. I've also been told to be sure to use UV protected thread... something called "Tenera", because of its long life.

Some questions:


  • If you have a snap-in cover, do you still like a rope tie-off or bungee straps?
  • Where do you focus reinforcement areas? bow-mount trolling motor, windshield, rod holders, boat cleats?
  • What is your thoughts on snap distance between each? 12,18,or 24 inches?


I'd sure appreciate your input.

Thanks!
