I got a semi custom cover from coverword for my 5m side console and love it. It is a great fit and very water proof as well as being vented and trailerable. Very good quality and heavy duty for the price.

Mate, don't fork out $200 for the trailerable ones from BCF. I am on my 3rd for the year (luckily all under warranty). The first one had a strap rip off, the second one started to rot and ripped in 3 pieces after a shower of rain. So far the 3rd is going along well. The waterproof quality is pretty good though :-?!!

Mate,
i had an off-the-shelf cover, and during those high winds late october, the cover 'fluttered' violently on my fully enclosed near-new bimini. its buggered both bimini and my cover. its now cost my over $3.5k. ouch! make sure you get a real good custom cover that fits well!

Marty,

I bought an OceanSouth cover for my boat. It has been in the weather every day for the past two years and is still in great condition.
Best $300 I have spent on my half cab boat.

I also had to replace our cover in the last few months and agree with with Angry, OceanSouth is a quality, waterproof product.

Bias also sold some cheapies but when I asked they pretty much said don't even bother, as they'll blow off in the first gust of wind and we won't refund you when you find out the hard way that they're a piece of crap...

The cover for my 5.3m glass cuddycab was $289.

Carver cover got mine in US Go2marine as was much cheaper than Coverworld as had it delivered to boat prior to shipping. On big cover 31 foot close to $500 saving v good cover.
