HI,

Does anyone have any pictures of there boats with the cover on.
Mine is going to have one fitted next week and it was just to see the different styles and tie down options there is, especially the options around the stern.

Thanks upfront.

Phil

Ribeye 600 playtime. Not fitted correct just thrown over. Pulls tight around the sponsons with rope running inside the seam, also have tie downs dotted around trailer.

Hi,

Here's 5 stern shots (plenty more if you need them - for most makes of RIB), if you let me know exactly what you're after I can probably take the relevant photo.

The pics in order are: -

Coastline (inboard diesel)
Cobra 755
Ribeye 650
Humber 8m
Ballistic 6.5m

Regards

Steve

I prefer to use ropes with a round turn and two half hitches rather than straps and buckles

The last photo shows a cover made by Cover Care and is what we have. Not the cheapest, but certainly not the most expensive either! They are top qaulity made to measure covers.
Even the recent crazy F10 winds didn't cause any issue with it coming loose.

No connection to them, just a very happy punter!

Another option ( but it does mean all the water drains into the stern so have to remember to take the bung out and tip the front up )
