Boat covers

 hey guys I've got a 21 ft carrabean reef runner/ hardtop that I'm looking to get another boat cover for. The two I've have in the past cost me about $500 and were a multi fit cover, problem is water pools in the slack areas resulting in mould and the demise of the cover, last one only lasted 2 years. Looking to see what other options are out there that may be a better option. I know I can get a full custom cover for about $2000 but looking for something in between

Boat cover

jump on eBay and search jumbo boat cover, these are exceptional value for around $200 and if you got 2 years out of them for that price then that's value. I have one and it was the best $190 I have spent on my boat

 Try making a frame out of pvc tubing and fittings that has the verticals going into the rod holders and into  appropriately placed container/s on the deck to form a "tent" style frame that will cause the water to run of the new boat cover.

Just an idea that I have seen and works very well.

I got the Jumbo ebay cover Dean and it work pretty well.
I added some PVC frames to create a shape the water will run off. Just drop into rod holders and rocket launcher
