2000 Outback LS boom and cover inquiries

Just picked up a 2000 Outback LS with tower and looking for the following pieces of advice:

1. What would the best boom be for this boat? In reading through this forum and searching barefootinternation i've seen a few...is the tower boom any good?

2. Any recommendations on a cover for the boat? Came with a trailer cover but wondering if anything easier to slip on while docked.

Thanks in advance!

My confidence is tested when they ask which side the trolling motor is mounted.
