    Boat Cover for my 208

    Yeah I noticed when I was done I had some excess drooping off the bow that I didn't need. Are you using anything on the windshield corners to protect the cover from ripping? Thats where my bimini post bracket is , along with the anchor light socket, which also seems to be "protruding" I should...

    Boat Cover for my 208

    After all said and done, I went with this cover from empire. They were able to get it to my door in 5 days. Gotta say it looks pretty well made, thanks for the rec' imjus4u2nv. Went on easy. I probably could have come aft and port a little, but its doing its job for now. Came with the straps...

    My windshield leaks ??

    So now that the boat is starting the new season with a newly installed fuel tank and repaired deck hatch among other things, this early spring was a good time to clean her up and wax her. Also broke out the full enclosure which I hadn't put up in years and fitted it properly after repairing a...

    Adding a hardtop

    Many of us have tried to find the holy grail only to come up short or never to be heard from again . LOL After all the research, post reading, commenting, photo comparisons, etc , I have found only one place (other than custom) that looks to be the place that will have what we seek...

    No rush Jason, at your leisure. Im not having any luck getting anyone to ship. Most of these covers are shipped directly from manufacturers, which arent shipping. Taylor-Made is shutting down production till the end of April :eek:

    Hi, Apparently 420 characters is the limit of a PM The one photo you provided in my thread showing the 1" poles for the bimini and where they get mounted right behind the fishbox lids, do they impede the lids from opening entirely? Thanks - Sandro P.

    Hi, Really got me interested when you say have the top setup so you can put rods up there when clearing the deck to fight a fish. I would really be interested to see some photos of the bimini setup in its entirely. - Sandro P.

    Boat Cover for my 208

    Im liking those quick release pins for the bimini fellas ;) Not sure what year your boat is holokai, look much newer than my 1993 :) - My bimini mounts a bit differently - mostly on the winshield frame ,except for the two aft poles. Ill try to post a pic

    Boat Cover for my 208

    Thats nice setup ! So the more I think about it, the more it seems like I will just have to drop the bimini and use a standard cover as my easiest option I only need to use it during the early spring and the fall, as this is when I am prone to getting all sorts of crap in the boat. Summer...

    Boat Cover for my 208

    thanks for that great pic lee. After seeing some answers from other members, throwing a cover over the bimini may not be the best idea. I do like your custom cover, I thought of something like that at one time, but I think I would use the snaps on the side glass and windshield. Then of...

    Boat Cover for my 208

    Thanks for the replies fellas. Like I said "m looking for a cover that will fit my 208 with a bimini top." . Maybe a cover that is made for a 208 hardtop might work? The bimini stays up for the season and during trailering, I only go maybe 5-15 miles to a ramp, any further and I take the...

    Boat Cover for my 208

    Im looking for a cover that will fit my 208 with a bimini top. I keep the boat in my driveway, and my neighborhood is full of old oaks, maples, hickory and others trees that leave a mess in my cockpit and deck, especially in the spring and fall. Im getting ready to give it the boat a good...
