I am trying to find a cover for my boat that will fit with the tower. Anyone know where to find a good deal? I have a skylon extreme classic tower. Here is a pic. It is a 2001 moomba outback.

Sidetracked, i can tell you that you'll need to work with a local shop that specializes in covers to get one that works with that tower. The reason? That's not a stock config and nobody is going to have the specs needed. You might be able to send pictures and dimensions but i doubt it as fit is everything and without the boat in shop it'll never be exact.

You might be able to find one for your boat without tower and have it modified locally too.

Pretty much the same for the bimini, but Skylon might have a bimini for their towers, check with them.

Evolution Covers. The guy started making them only for Malibus and slowly increased his line. He goes to a dealer near him and measures the boats. I've owned boats for 20 years and never had a cover fit and function as good as his.

The problem he'd have here LSV is that this is an older boat with an aftermarket tower so you know what the odds of Evolution finding that combo locally is? Proabably less than 1%.

Fair enough, Razz, however, it only takes an e-mail to see if a great cover at a great price.

What does Evolution charge for a cover?

I had a custom snap on cover made earlier this fall - it was the new sunbrella material with a seperate bow cover and then one from the windshield back. It was ~$600 bucks but the material is garaunteed for 10 year. It has worked great - nice and waterproof.
