Blue Sky cover - has anyone tried one?

[Vikingstaff]

I’ve had good luck with mine. I have a covered dock which gets some rain under it if the wind is blowing hard enough but mostly the cover is there to keep bird and spider droppings out of the boat. It’s not unusual at this time of year for us to get 30+ MPH wind gusts and there hasn’t been any problem with that. I keep the cover on with clips I got from a member of one of the Facebook Bennington forums. He posted 3D Printer files online to make them and since I don’t have a 3D printer, he graciously made me a set. The clips snap into the rails just like the clips on the factory cover and I just leave them installed in the rails. I loop the straps over the front cleats, pull the cover the length of the boat and attach the straps to the back cleats. After that, I just walk around the boat slipping the remaining straps into the slots in the clips. Five minutes tops and I’m done. No poles, no messing around. The ease of taking to cover off and putting it back on has made it much easier to take our boat out.

Nice idea they had on 3D printing working clips. Nice option!

I got a bunch of these clips from Tumacs along with some punch style snaps thru the cover straps to keep tension on the sides. Work well.

I have one ordered in black that is supposed to ship this month.

I am very much interested. Sick and tired of snapping gadzillion snaps. Could you please send contact info,.
Thanx

I recently ordered one and received it a few days ago but I won't be able to check it out for another month or more. I have a covered boat lift but I want to keep as much pollen out of my boat as possible. It gets thick here in Maine where I'm at and it is a pain in the $SS!

Same here in North Carolina. I’ve got the regular cover back on mine until the end of pollen season around the end of April and then the Blue Sky cover goes back on. The Blue Sky works great with our covered dock but there are enough gaps in it that the pollen would sneak in and make a mess out of the boat.
