Default Re: full cover for 23ft cc

I just ordered a Terry Made cover for my 23 CC cost $350 + Tax went with the polyester breathable material which is best for Fl. with our rain and humidity. It will take two weeks to get this semi custom cover, you got to talk to the guy to give him some measurements. I figured for $350 it’s worth a shot. Last cover cost $800 and that was a great deal back in 2002 made out of Sunbrella. Today price is $1,250 to $1,750 from a custom cover shop here in Ft. Lauderdale Fl. The new cover fits like the T Top Cover co. which quoted me about $800 8 months ago.
I wanted to get away from Sunbrella fabric because of the weight of the cover. It was a real hassle putting on the Sunbrella cover for the last 7 years. The zippers blew out at about 4-5 years and I had to use brass rings and rope to tie the two sections together.
My major concerns for a cover is UV light plus Dirt and lots of water coming in from our heavy rain storms. I don’t mind a little water getting in the boat but I don’t wand mildew so a breathable fabric is best for me.

PS: If any one wants my old cover that lives close enough to pick it up you can have it FREE after I get my new one. Probable last you 1-2 years more with TLC

Ken- I'll take it! Name your favorite adult beverage, Sir! My 23 is sitting under one of my oak trees and the leaves are about to start falling! I will be in Palm Beach County over Nov. / Dec. and I can drive down from there. Thank you!

Hi Guys;

I got my new cover in and I took some pictures for any one with a 23 CC interested in a good + cheep cover. It’s a Taylor Made model hot shot for 22.6 to 23.6 boats with a CC fits very well on my boat and is a breathable material that is polyester base. Says it’s guaranteed for 5 years which is the same as my old Sumbrella top that lasted 7 + years and still has some life left in it. Cost me $380.00 delivered in approx 2 weeks time and I am happy with what I got especially for the price a new custom Sumbrella top would go for approx $1,200 to $1,700 now a days meaning I could replace mine every 5 years for approx 20 years for the same $$ The guy I bought it from is Don Larson 813-240-1617 if any one interested they can set it up for your boats configeration.

I know it's only been a short time, how do you like the cover so far. My brother got one of these for his 25' Aquasport and it's about 2' too long. His #1 goal was to keep the leaves out so the extra is really no big deal. This one you have looks and fits pretty good for the 23' SF. My big question is keeping the center console dry, how does it do in that regard?? (Heck I'm not sure if it's rained down there since you purchased)
