Review on iCOVER Trailerable Boat Cover: Heavy Duty, Waterproof UV Resistant Marine Grade Polyester for V-Hull, TRI-Hull, Pro-Style, Fishing, Runabout, and Bass Boats by John Hall

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't look like everything.

Looks great right out of the box, installation was pretty easy. Used pool noodles, trimmed at my pointed ends. Attached top straps to prevent bloating as suggested. Trailer straps attached and adjusted. Good looking. Ready to take the boat to my favorite destination. I'm crazy! Merge onto the Interstate and accelerate (70 mph). I'm just starting to get used to the 3 hour drive and what am I seeing? flap, flap, flap. Oh shit, did I forget to tie something? Getting off the road, weekend traffic, Father's Day, Friday. Despite the streams of cars driving faster than I'd like, I backtrack to see if I've ducked for cover. And so! I have a broken female clip on one of the trailer straps. Luckily, I'm resourceful and usually have a few ziplines, so there's no reason to cut short the adventure. Buckle up and get out. Fast forward an hour, driving at my usual highway speed of 70mph doesn't happen, this coating explodes like a giant mushroom. No tightening works, no trailer straps (of which I have now found 2 more broken sockets), no anti-bloat straps (haha), no my trusty bungee, nothing. I finally decided wtf to send it. What can happen? We have to get there. Long story longer, we made it and had a great time on the boat. But this cover is rubbish, rubbish and rubbish rolled into one.

Pros
  • Boating and Sailing
Cons
  • unreliable
