How can I be certain of choosing the correct size cover for my boat?
It is important to properly check your boat length details before ordering, in the semi custom fit range of Ocean South Boat Covers we provide the information for the size boat they are designed to fit and the actual dimensions of the material from one end to the other.
When checking your boat length please dont assume that a model number determines the length of the boat, for example a model number might say 430 in it which could make you think the boat is 430cm long but actually when checking the specs of the boat you may find the boat is 445cm long, this make a difference between which size cover is going to fit your boat.
Also we strongly recommend measuring up and over across the centre and the widest part of the boat to check that the maximum fabric lengths do suit your boat you may find after measuring that you need to change your originally expected cover size.
If you are not sure then please phone or email for assistance we are here to help you get the correct fitting cover.
What Material are Ocean South Boat Covers Made from?
Ocean South Boat Covers are made from a heavy duty Marine Canvas called Cyclone Premium Woven Dope Dyed Polyester.
Do the Boat Cover Fabrics breath?
The ready made boat covers have a rear air vent which allows airflow which reduces moisture build up inside the cover.
Will the cover go over my Outboard Motor?
No, you need to purchase a seperate outboard motor cover to go with the boat cover. Coverworld offer a comprehensive range of outboard motor covers. Our USA Manufactured Carver Covers do include an attached rear motor pocket for all boats that have an outboard engine.
I have a Bimini Top can I still use my Boat cover?
Yes : The Bimini must be folded flat on the boat and the cover can go over the top of it.
How do I care for my Boat Cover?
To keep your boat cover looking great much longer make sure to support your cover using the Boat Cover support poles. Supporting your cover properly will prevent water from pooling on the cover.
When trailering or storing yor boat with the cover on it use the Tie Down Kit to prevent damage to the cover.
Never wash the boat cover in a machine, you can use a soft bristle brush for cleaning, allow the cover to dry completly before folding and storing it.
We offer specialist cleaning products for boat covers which we reccomend using for the best quality cleanign and care results.
Never use any chemicals or cleaning solutions on your Boat Covers, this will void your warranty and can significantly reduce the lifespan of the fabric.
We offer a boat cover support system that can be used to lift the cover to assist with water run off and prevent water pooling on the boat cover material. Water pooling on fabric over a long period can cause fabric damage so its always best to use the support system if its suitable for your specific boat model.
