I need a new boat cover?
I have a 1987 Bayliner Capri Cuddy, 18 ft. It came with the original canvas snap boat cover, however it has become too small due to sun. Is there another type of cover more of just a slip cover that I can keep on it all summer while it is docked in the water? Does anyone have any websites or suggestions?
Well if the current cover isn’t torn or worn out I can probably save you a couple of hundred dollars. First, soak the cover in a tub of fresh water to rinse the salt out of it. Next, stretch the cover to reach the bow and aft snaps and attach them. Now start working your way down both sides toward the middle of the boat. You should be able to restretch the canvas to fit the boat if you wet it first.
If you do need to buy another cover you’re looking for someone who works with canvas to make boat covers, awnings, etc. Sometimes a sail maker might make them as well as a part of a side line.
I also found a link to an owners club which led me to a good shop specializing in Bayliner covers. I’ll leave those links below.
I would still recommend that you try to restretch the original covers first though. It’s really not all that hard and new covers are going to be expensive. Besides that all that’s going to happen to your new cover is it will get wet and shrink the same way that this one did. What will you do buy a new cover every time one shrinks?
Good luck with your solution….
