Thanks so much Todd! I'm glad its exactly what I made it out to be. That's always my aim!

color?
Price?

Sold dude.

Haha they might have the patterns. I can check.

Are you talking about Angola? They should have all the patterns, unlike most cover companies. They supplied mwcc with covers dating back to the 60's.

Just double checked their web site. While they don't stock them, they can make them. I am calling for a quote today!

Will be there tomorrow picking mine up after they repaired it from the mouse. They are great and did not even charge me. Very honest company, told me it was too new and it only took them 5 minutes to repair. Send me over what you need and I will ask them.

Greg, the Angola and Westland covers (I think those are primarily what N3 has) are great mooring covers with decent fit and workmanship. They are really not trailerable covers though. You need a really tight fitting cover in order to trailer with it without buffeting at highway speeds (which will either damage the cover or the gel... or both). Coversports is one of the only cover companies Im aware of that has ski boat patterns, though Im not sure they have one to match your SNOB. A local upholstery shop would be the other option, as they can custom fit a cover to your particular boat. Just try to find one that doesnt demand you use snaps. Brett, JBear and Eddie all had covers at the SJRR that I would say fell into this category- very nice custom covers, which Im betting were all made locally.

Non-factory tower cut outs are usually best added by a local shop in either case, especially on a trailerable cover, as their location needs to be pretty much spot on.

Upholstery costs seem to vary by region, so you may want to ask around and see what local shops charge. $800-1k would be about right here in CT. A decent fitting off the shelf mooring cover (Angola, Skiboatcovers, Westland, etc) made out of sunbrella will run closer to $500-600 for a 19-20' boat.

BTW, my dad is Gregg, he's the other BFN co-owner.    Our paths crossed at the SJRR but we never actually met. Next year!
