HELLO FELLOW RIDERS!

My old seadoo cover is ready to retire! I need a replacement soon. It would probably cost me $400 for a new one <_<

. Hey Kevin- is your cover an oem or aftermarket? Has anyone bought an aftermarket one? Any feed back is much appreciated!

SUMMER is almost HERE..... :clapping:

Mine is aftermarket because it had Travis Marine stamped on it. I would check eBay I have seen then on there from time to time. :thumbup1:

I just purchased one from Poppy Company. It has the Vacu-hold system which helps keep the cover tight when trailering. I have not pulled the boat yet with the cover on however the fit of the cover is almost perfect. It is as good as the OEM cover was.

Cool WaskesiuDoo! It's about $300...reasonable price:thumbup1: Well, please let me know how sturdy it is when you're pulling the boat. I am really interested. I think it's a good investment because it will protect my good condition seats, and will keep the dirt, leaves, etc out...it gets very very windy here some times. It was 40mph wind gust this afternoon!

Ice was still coming off the lake when I was up this past weekend. I should be able to get out this upcoming weekend and will let you know then.

I was at Costco yesterday and they are selling a generic boat covers for $89. For that cheap price I might check one out. I don't need one since I have a custom one on mine but at that price if they fit good they would be worth it getting.

Thanks for the thread waskesiuDoo

Based on this I too have just ordered from Poppy!

But as I am in the UK (weather forecast - awesome summer!!! :clapping:

) it takes up to 10 days to get here!

Like to see some pics while I wait!

Here you go. You'll be very happy with the Poppy cover, and it works great for towing.

Cover arrived from Poppy yesterday - just as advertised. Beautifully made and fits like a glove - in fact I couldn't get it
on to start with - until I released the ratchet(DOH) - I would recommend to anyone.
