I need some guidance with my cover... .
Currently own a two piece snap-on canvas cover that came with the boat. I like it, because it is already paid for, but I am not sure if it is useful anymore.
I took it to the canvas shop last winter for a patch and seal. I fear the guy remembered to charge me for waterproofing, but forgot to actually waterproof it - I know it should breathe, but it leaked in heavy rain.
Is there a product that can seal the canvas -- or am I due for a new cover?
Last year we trailered the boat (the snap on needed to be bungied down for long trips, but worked fine since the ramp is about 1000 feet from the area we store it).
This year we intend on keeping it in the water - so I was looking at covers here on iboats... but they look like only trailer covers? and not for use mooring.
So if i cannot reseal this cover, I may be in for getting a new one sewn.
Am I right?
