I live in northern Indiana and am trying to find a good place that could make a custom cover for my 68 Mustang. All I seem to be able to fing online is the type that has straps and I need one that has snaps and is made for the boat. Any help is appreciated. ------------- 1968 Mustang 318 CM |

Snaps themselves arent bad, but I HATE putting holes in my boat when it can be avoided. I would consider a nice fitting custom cover with a drawstring. ------------- |

I've always used a ski tique cover on my mustang, it's a little big, but it works.

Yes unless you like the looks of snaps on the hull sides. Plus, as long as you are having a custom cover made. I recommend to have it made at least to the water line or even better to the chines. If outside, it will keep the UV from attacking the hull. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Angola Canvas does my cutoms covers. they are reasonable and do good work. (Straps on mine too)! ------------- 👣 Steve http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4057&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1986&yrend=1986" rel="nofollow - 86 Barefoot Nautique 89 Martinique Former Owner: 93 Hydrodyne 350 MAG |

Also as far as the cover. I have buttons (snaps) all the way around right under the lip of the edge. I may need to dock the boat in the water up to a week at times and cannot get under it to pull drawstrings tight and what not. So I wanted to get a replacement cover for it. I already have one with the straps for trailering and setting out of the water as well. And yes, I do have a float and bilge.....  ------------- 1968 Mustang 318 CM |
