4 REASONS TO BUY A CUSTOM COVER
You’re a boat owner.
And you care about your time on the water.
Which is why you care about protecting your boat when it’s off the water.
So you begin shopping for a boat cover.
But you find there are a bunch of options.
Which leaves you confused about what’s best.
Well, here are 4 incredibly simple reasons to purchase a custom boat cover.
NO, ANY COVER WILL NOT JUST WORK.
First, you must understand that not every boat cover fits every boat. Reason being, aluminum fishing boats are very different from cabin cruisers which are very different from wake boats. And if that’s not enough, in most cases boats have custom features that may impact covering ability. Thus, even boats that are the same make and model may require very different customization in order to be covered properly.
THE PERFECT FIT MATTERS.
Okay, this concept might not surprise you (at least at first glance), but when it comes to your boat cover, it should fit perfectly. Ideally, it should be water tight yet loose enough to allow air to circulate. When covers don’t fit perfectly, they can cause additional wear and tear on both the interior and exterior of your boat. Additionally, covers that are too tight can lock in moisture inside the boat and depending on where you store your boat this can lead to mold or ice problems.
UPHOLSTERY DESERVES YOUR RESPECT.
Okay, your boat’s upholstery isn’t a person (or even a living thing). But regardless, it deserves to be treated well. While your boat is designed to take some wear and tear, your boat’s upholstery needs to be protected more intentionally; especially from harmful sun rays, storms and debris (from driving, wind, etc.). Covers that are made for your boat and fit perfectly will protect your upholstery the best, ensuring it lasts a long time.
HAND-SEWN BOAT COVERS DELIVER INTENTIONALITY.
At the end of the day, you’re protecting your investment, and a certain level of intentionality is required. Hand-sewn boat cover solutions provide that intention by providing appropriate stitching and reinforcement to the specific areas your cover is more prone to have additional pressure. This kind of craftsmanship and care can only come from creating a boat cover specifically designed for your boat.
Your boat cover matters.
