2. Aqualon...not quite as heavy as Travel Tuff...but pretty dang close. Also non breathable..but i dont bass fish, so i like a nonbreathable cover. Aqualon comes in good selection of colors. Travel Tuff might only come on "grey".. but i forget.

if you GOOGLE either material, you can educate yourself.  If you get something like Travel Tuff or Aqualon, you dont want it slapping the heck out of your console as you trailer your boat..have them put some "reinforcments" where the windshield is, so it doest scratch it up...

having had several covers custom made, most places to let you "add on" without bringing the price up..so tell you you want it doube reinforced up at the bow (where the trolling motor is) and anywhere else on the boat you have accessories, like trolling rod holders and such. they normally do it without charging extra...

Al..i have purchases a few new covers the past 3 years..here are my two favorite materials.
1. travel tuff... this stuff is nice...about the heaviest cover material out there. (i think it is the heaviest) Nonbreathable..the way i like it...wont tear/rip. Wont leak any water...super strong, durable. love it. keeps the water out.

2. Aqualon...not quite as heavy as Travel Tuff...but pretty dang close. Also non breathable..but i dont bass fish, so i like a nonbreathable cover. Aqualon comes in good selection of colors. Travel Tuff might only come on "grey".. but i forget.
