Default Fitted Storage Cover

Thanks, Nymack

I had not found iboats before. I will call at least one of the listed cover makers in the morning.
I have used various things to support the tarp that I have been using. One of the most effective at creating a "tent" shape that will not catch rainwater is a 7/16 nylon line attached to the bow pulpit anchor roller and extending over the windshield going aft over the Mercury OB. Tilting the motor down carefully gets that line pretty snug.
I also have made a wooden piece from a 1x6x 7' that slips over the top of the windshield. This piece has some rubber padding, especially on both sides of the windshield to provide a wide padded surface so that the W/S corners don't poke holes in the tarp.

Again thanks for the help.

Jack
