Here is an idea I came up with to protect your boat cover from getting cut by the corner of your windshield. Just take one of those noodle float toys and cut a slice down the length of it. Next cut it into 3 equal pieces, then place one piece on each corner of your windshield and one in the middle. see pics. Its an easy way to spend $5 to protect your $200 cover.

Agreed Pete, I've been using that on my windshield for a while now. Pre sliced for you convenience! D. |

However, usually there is an adhesive applied that will eventually goo up the windshield when the waxed tape falls off in the heat.
Whatever floats your boat. (heh, see what i did there?) |

My Angola Canvas Sunbrella cover has heavy lining material for th windshield and all hard points. Those folks know what the heck they're doing.

I agree. A quality cover will have reinforcement built in at all high stress points. |
