Missing boating and why boat covers are important...

As I was growing up and into my late teen years my family always owned a boat. We spent many hours on the Maumee River, Maumee Bay and even across Lake Erie. We had a 16 foot motor boat that worked just fine for our needs though at times when the Lake was a bit rough it was almost a roller coaster experience. My father preferred a canvas boat cover, feeling at the time that canvas was sturdier than plastic. This was of course before the more technologically advanced covers like Sunbrella became popular. My grandfather also had a boat which our family used at Lake James, his was a pontoon and I remember helping him take off and put on the pontoon boat covers. Pontoon boats were great for just cruising around the Lake, swimming off of and for fishing.

Boats are not inexpensive and having a quality boat cover is necessary to helping to protect your investment from the damages of nature.
