This is a photo of my boat with the winter pool cover on it. I've been using them for years. Get an oval one. They fit remarkably well and last many, many years. The one in the pic is 2 years old and is guaranteed for 15 years. Cost was less than $50. (If I remember correctly the size is 24' x 14') The color is green on the outside and black on the inside. I know this looks like it's black outside, but it's really the green side. It's just a trick of shading and the camera.

Thanks everyone. There is a pool place right down the road from here that I will check out shortly. Never thought of a pool cover but sounds like a great idea. This site is great. Just ask and you will receive great replies. I really do not want to talk about winter yet, just trying to prepare ahead of time.

GRADY268, I looked up an older thread in these forums for some information for you.

The cover shown is a 12' x 24' Oval.
I bought it from National Pool Wholesalers in Florida.
(nationalpoolwholesalers.com) It's their "Ultra Armor Max Gold" Winter Cover. Comes with a 12 year guarantee and it cost $45.97 + tax and shipping. (If I recall correctly the shipping was about $12 bucks.)

The prices over the internet are much better than the prices you'll find at a local pool supply house, and since you have time before ol' man winter shows his ugly head you might want to consider sending away for a cover. Look them up...it just might be worth your while.

Thanks, Destroyer. I just ordered mine and as soon as it comes in, I will let everyone know how good it fits. This board is great for any questions.

I saw your post and ordered one of the 15yr models the other night. It arrived today, and looks like it'll do the trick.

Thanks!
