Boat Cover Supports

While docker or moored mostly.

I have bought this

Boat Cover Support System | Taylor Made Boat Parts & Accessories

Extend the life of your boat cover with our pontoon boat cover support system.

But still my issues persists, the issue is that water always finds a way to pool and drags the cover into the boat, it always stays on the boat which is good, but sure doesnt look great when i get to the dock and its pooled with water and down inside the bow or wherever it pooled.

Google is not showing me any better products but there must be a better solution here. Now, i must add that my boat, for whatever reasons does not have snaps and have a custom cover for itself as other boats i have owned do. So i just buy the correct size cover online for my boat and attempt to use support polls, not to beat a dead horse here but they always fail.

I have 2 decent polls now i bought it great reviews online but no matter how i seem to position them on the boat under the cover, no matter what height i always find my boat cover has sunken in with pooled water, somestimes the polls have come down as well, even when i attempt to tie them off with the cleats to keep them upright. Its a frustrating game i keep loosing.

I think we all do.

had 4" of rain fall about 8 months ago, rain started pooling, the support pole slipped, and the whole cover had about 500 gallons of water in the top that I had to rig a pump up to get out.

then had to repair the cover.

tried everything and once in the while mother nature wins

Beleive it or not, makes me feel a bit better, i guess this is just the way of it, as annoying as the pooling water is, it still keeps it out of my boat and thats my ultimate goal.

We supplement our poles with inflatable swimming rings that we wedge under the cover in the spots where water pools. It works pretty well on our small boat. Without the swim rings, we'd always have water pooling.

I know, i think the solution was always staring me in the face i just thought there was a more "normal" solution. I have a bow rider so i used to keep my tube (fully inflated) in the bow and that seemed to do the trick, still need a solution for the main area of the boat but i think its time to keep the tube in the bow again.
