Boat cover for 2004 Nantucket 190.

Postby InVision » Mon Sep 11, 2017 12:55 pm

Does anyone have any suggestions for a boat cover for our 2004 Nantucket 190? The boat will be on a boat lift and we where getting a lift cover but cannot find one this year probably. Don't want to break bank here because hopefully when folks get caught up from storm damage that we will get a boat lift cover.

Thanks for any ideas or thoughts.

I recently bought a Budge cover thru Amazon for my Nantucket. Good quality and price. Order a size or two larger to account for the bow rail.

5 years later and 5000 miles road driving mine still looks great. Did apply waterproof spray last year.

Well I decided to go with the folks that have custom made our covers in the past. I did not like any of the less expensive covers that I looked at. The canvas shop borrowed a Nantucket 190 like ours and fitted a pattern to it. Had them install a port side zipper for access when boat is on the lift. I will put 1/2" shock cord with hooks on both sides of lift. We will get grey color which holds up better down here in Florida. Will post a photo when we get our cover of boat on lift. Also the cover has a full 7 yr warranty.

How do you rig those lines under the keel with the boat on the lift?

Don't really need the shock cords in normal weather. I put them together for winter storage or wind storms. The side shock cords are very easy with the help of a boat hook. The front shock cord is rigged with the help of the loose board seen laying in the front of dock. It lays at a diagonal from side to front of dock deck allowing easy installation. I put together the shock cords from 3/8" marine shock cord and hooks.

Extremely happy with custom cover. It actually covers the swim platform as well (not shown). Considering the maker did not have our Nantucket everything fits like a glove.
