deans custom covers

I never trailer with a cover just because they can wear on the gel due to the wind rubbing the cover against the boat. But Deans may be better than the ones I have used. But as far as when parked or in the garage my boat is covered due to leaves, cats , insects, etc… I do know dean make s a great product and you will be very happy with you new cat. Maybe someone else can chime in and tell you more about a deans than I know.

Most do not prefer a cover to tow and we have our opinions. It must be taught and unable to flop in the breeze if you pull with it. The Saran Wrap does work well to protect one. There could be small scuff that one would have to buff on the side of the hull sometimes. This is a protection measure. On short trips a cover is fine, though on long ones you might try and protect it. We pull thousands of miles with various covers during the year. Many of us have individually put more miles in one season than most will in a lifetime on their trailers. We all have had some scuffing on occasion if our covers are not taught.

Im not arguing with BCB here, but Ive used a Deans with my boats for the past 5 years or so, and I love the cover. Light, durable, waterproof, and I find it easy to install and remove. I hate the dust and road grime that gets in a boat from pulling open, and so I put my cover on most of the time. I get it on straight, cinch down the stern straps, then work backwards from the bow. Last, I cinch down the skirt strap tightly. One other thing. I put a piece of clear vinyl tubing over the loop side of the skirt rope, to protect it from chafing from the rachet hook. Also, on the straps, be sure to put one twist around the standing side before snapping the buckle. This will help stop chafing of the straps where it loops around the trailer frame.
