Did you get yours? I got mine. Hopefully the best $39.95 I'll have spent this year. :D

Could not find one to fit mine! Dang it!!
I have tall bow rails and had no luck trying to match up a cover.
It would have been a great deal for a winter cover...

Glad you got one!;)

Wow I didn't know they had free shipping too. I just got a 16' cover with an outboard pocket for my boat for $39.95. Sweet! My current cover is getting a bit tattered.

Re: iBoats boat cover clearance

So if it says it made for a boat with a tower, should I assume that this means there are slits with either velcro or buttons where the tower goes up?

I have a 19 foot stingray with no tower yet. There is a 20 foot that says its for a mastercraft X5 with a tower and does not cover the swim platform. There are two other cloudburst ones for wakeboard boats in the 20 foot range for boats with towers, one that covers the swim platform, one that doesn't.

Any tips on selecting one?

I would be fine with the cover being somewhat big as I wont trailer with it and I would like it to protect the red part of my boat from the sun.

Re: iBoats boat cover clearance

Ok more info:

My boat -- 19 foot with a 91 inch beam, IO with a small built in swim platform

two current options:

1- Artic silver sharkskin for 19 foot mastercraft x5 with tower
my research on a mastercraft is it has a 19.6 length and an 85 inch beam.

2- Grey Cloudburst for a 20 foot centurion cyclone w etreme tower
my research on this boat is that its 20 feet long with a 92 beam.

I think I would prefer the sharkskin given given where I store my boat, but I am scared that the beam of that boat might mean the cover is too small for mine. I really would prefer the cover to be bigger.

Do I need to go with the cloudburst?

I'd think #2 is more appropriate.

i agree,better to have extra than be too short on the beam width..

Re: iBoats boat cover clearance

Got the 20 foot cloudburst one. I won't know how it fits for 6 months since the boat is in winter storage, but for $60 bucks with free shipping I had to take a chance.

I guess I need to buy a wakeboard next since I will have a cover that fits one!

Thanks for the help!

I got one last year. I use 4 plastic totes in places to fill in where needed,
but that's ok. It is a great cover, and a super deal!

Re: iBoats boat cover clearance

I just thought I'd post an update on my sharkskin cover, and it is not good.

While the sharkskin material is super light, and thin, and very waterproof,
the seams in it, wherever there is a threaded area, can leak through the
threaded area. Over the winter, I used another outer cover over the
sharkskin, and had no problem. Now that I have been using only the sharkskin,
thought I could trust it fully, I found that it leaks. If you have an area where
some water might puddle for awhile, or there is just a real lot of rain, it will
leak through the threaded area.

The good deal was not a good deal, after all.

Back to the canvas type, for me.
