basically what the title says, I am wondering who makes the factory Moomba cover for the 2008 XLV and what material they used to make it. It doesn't feel like the sunbrella cover I had on my Supra, it feels more like a goretex ski jacket to me.

I love the cover. The nylon webbing, the built in vents, the two telescoping poles, and the nylong webbing with side buckle clips and a ratchet strap to tighten it all down. And I LOVE that I can tow with it on!

So who makes it and what's it made of?

I know there is a tag on my 2009 cover that states who the manufacturer is.

But without being at home to look at it, I'm pretty sure mine is from: Great Lakes Boat Top

That's where the current ones come from so I'd imagine they've been using them for a while.

Yep! they are on the tag. awesome cover. and it also told the material used, I think it said "storm shield" or something... I'll have to give them a call to find out the best way to clean it.

Please let us know about the cleaning. Mine is pretty disgusting where it comes in contact with the rear sun deck. seems like it is saturated with mildew.

I know that gentle care detergent doesn't work very well.

I emailed Great Lakes and they replied with this link:
