Why don't you use Sunbrella?

WeatherMax and Sur Last were chosen because they are lighter weight which allows for easy 1-person installation, they also folds up into a smaller area. Sunbrella is much heavier and will stretch if water is allowed to puddle or pocket on it. WeatherMax and Sur Last covers hold their original shape even if water puddles or collects on them.

T-Top Boat Covers are not designed for trailering, they are made for storage. While the high manufacturing standards we employ may prevent any damage to your cover during travel, doing so will void your warranty.

On which side is the zipper to enter the boat?

The zipper is located on the Port side. Notify your dealer or sales representative if a starboard zipper is needed, in some cases we may even be able to provide you with a zipper entrance on both the port & starboard sides. Check with your dealer or sales representative for availability and pricing.

How does the cover fasten at the bottom?

T-Top Boat Covers have a drawn rope that ties off at the bottom of the port side zipper. One inch webbing straps are positioned around the bottom of the cover for tie-downs to the trailer. These tie-downs are not included with your cover.

No. We use a lightweight fabric which will not handle the constant wind at high speeds. We recommend that you not travel with it because this will void the warranty.

How does the Center Console Curtain fasten at the bottom?

Tie down loops are sewn to the bottom of the curtain to allow tie down straps or bungee cords to attach to the T-top frame or helm seat. You can also use our sandbags with lifejacket clips to help hold it down if necessary.
