I pulled till I thought I was risking a tear trying to get it to fit at the windshield, it came up short..
The manufacturer states it won’t fit, I tend to agree with him now. Thanks for the link Ken.

The windshield between 90-93 and 94-96 NWZ’s is in the same place, and the size pretty close to the same- but the shape (straight/flat vs curved) is different. There are other deck differences but they’re pretty subtle. I wouldn’t expect a 6” difference unless caused by the windshield corners. Are you sure you had it secured on the nose properly?

Here's a thread from a couple of years ago with what might be a Cover Source International cover for a slantback or a copy of one complete with pictures.

Looks like you guys have nailed it. I did not realize the cover was that short by design. Interior protection only.
The windshield area of the cover is reinforced. The reinforced area is about 6” short of reaching my windshield top so maybe the manufacturer is 100% correct. Fits the early NWZ but not the later windshields. The manufacturer says it fits 90-93 only. If someone needs this one pay Walter and I will ship it direct to them.

Ken’s got it. The cover will appear short until tightened (which will be an ordeal if you haven’t done it before). It’ll only come to the top of the sloped transom on a NWZ. Before tightening it’ll barely reach the back seat. There is no room for variation in the pattern with how tight the cover fits, unlike a typical mooring cover… the windshield difference is probably a non-starter.

Here's a quote from Hollywood earlier in this thread A little googling will tell you that Brent Fleming at Cover Source International gets some let's say, "mixed reviews" Walter sounds like a stand up guy, he gave you back your money, so I'd figure that you'd send the cover back and he can see how it fits his 90 It may be that it is only meant to go to just beyond the back seat and has straps to hold it tightly stretched to the grab rail back there. His covers fit tight, with a capital T  It may also mean that a small difference in windshield height and/or location makes a big difference in how it fits. Here's a picture of one of his covers on a 98 SN. Different hull than yours, but it shows the straps and should give you an idea how the 90 cover was probably meant to fit.  |

Follow up, I purchased the cover from Wkeith, Walter did everything he should have. The cover came in brand new in a sealed package as described but is about 3 foot short of covering my 1995 Ski Nautique. The manufacturer says this is correct because the 95 has a different windshield than the 1990? Stretched tight the cover was a little short of my back seat in length so did not even reach past my interior much less the rear sloped deck. Windshield change or not I can’t see this cover fitting any NWZ hull. Walter has been all over the manufacturer but no luck so far. Walter did refund my purchase money so no complaints from me here just trying to verify facts. I would think a good cover should reach the back of the fiberglass at least if not all the way over the rear swim deck. Is the 90 windshield shorter./ lower than the 95? Your Thoughts?

Responding slowly, family issues have kept me to busy to hit the internet lately. I would like a new cover, I keep debating if I need the Heavy duty one you have for sale. I will try and do some reading on this brand today and get back with you. Thanks. Mark

1990 and 1995 have the same hull, similar decks, and different windshields. Never heard of Pro Cover. The rest, hell of a story if true.

This cover for your 1990, just checking to verify, my boat is a 1995, I think the 90 and 95 have the same hull and not the earlier 2001 Hull? Thanks

I still have it in the unopened box it was shipped in. My wife bought me a cover for my birthday not knowing I had one on order. Didn't want to hurt feelings so never disclosed I had one coming. Would much rather have this cover than the one she gave me, but peace at home is worth more.
I payed $840, will sell for $600 plus shipping. |

It is all weather, heavy duty. There is a you tube video to show how to install the cover and cinch straps. Not for my model, but gives you and idea of the craftmanship that goes into it.
You tube "Installing the Pro Cover". |

What is unique about the Pro Cover to make it worth 900? Is it all weather?
