Thanks for the tip! I just looked them up. They have a drop down menu with SeaCraft models going back to '78 MY to select, with three cover options for the Seafari. Two of the three options are back-ordered until 8/31; their mid-level cover ends up being $60 more than Vortex, but is twice the denier rating (1200 vs. 600). They emailed me a 20% coupon code which is "THANKS". ;) I'm going to give them a call because the covers has some contradictions whether it fit over O/B motors, and the size selected seems to be at the upper edge of the size range (18'-20').

Thanks! It looks like the closest model they have loaded is a 20' Classic CC

So just to update, I never heard back from Vortex via email.
I spoke to Budge customer service after a half hour wait. Despite having a semi-custom drop-down option for a 20' Seafari. He said the cover wasn't for a bimini top (despite mine being of factory design...), and to just take my front railing off because it would void the 7-year warranty. yeah, OK LOL.
