Boat & Engine Covers

Shop boat covers, outboard engine covers and marine canvas for storage, mooring and trailering. Compare cover styles, materials, dimensions and fixing methods, then check the listed fit before ordering. If you are unsure, send us the boat or engine make, model and measurements so we can help you choose the right cover.

Shop Covers by Type

Pro Tip:

Be sure to gather exact measurements before purchasing a cover

What size and style do I need?

Start with the cover type: bowrider, runabout, centre or side console, fishing boat, Jon boat, cabin/cruiser or outboard cover. Measure the overall fabric length and width over the highest fittings, such as the windscreen, folded Bimini, rails, rocket launcher or bait board. For an outboard cover, confirm the engine make, model and shaft length. Use the product dimensions or order code rather than boat length alone.

Is it for storage, mooring or trailering?

What material and protection should I choose?

For outdoor or winter storage, look for marine-grade fabric with water resistance, UV protection, breathability or ventilation, reinforced seams and secure tie-downs. Outboard covers may also include a soft lining, elasticised hem, zip or toggle fastening. The cover should keep out rain and UV without trapping unnecessary moisture. Clean it with mild soapy water and let it dry fully before storage.

What should I confirm before ordering?

Check the exact boat style or engine make and model, product variant or SKU, shaft length where relevant, overall dimensions, beam width and any features that affect the fit. Older outboard cowlings may need a universal cover rather than a newer custom-fit pattern. If you are unsure, send us the make, model, measurements and a clear photo before ordering.

Boat and Outboard Cover FAQs

How do I choose the correct boat cover size?

Measure the boat itself rather than relying only on its advertised length. Check the overall length and beam, then account for windscreen height, consoles, rails, seats and other fittings that the cover must clear. A cover that is too tight can strain the fabric and fastenings, while one that is too loose may collect water or move in the wind. Always compare your measurements with the supplier’s stated cover dimensions and fitting style.

Can I use the same cover for storage, mooring and trailering?

Not always. A storage cover may be suitable for keeping dust, rain and sunlight off a boat when it is stationary, but a mooring cover needs secure fastening and suitable drainage for exposed conditions. Trailering places much greater load on the cover, straps and seams, so only use a cover where the manufacturer specifically confirms it is suitable for towing. If you regularly trailer the boat, prioritise reinforced tie-down points and a close, secure fit.

What is the difference between a boat cover and an outboard engine cover?

A boat cover protects the hull and cockpit, while an outboard cover is shaped around the engine cowling. Outboard covers are usually matched to the engine manufacturer, model range, horsepower, cylinder configuration or cowling dimensions. Horsepower alone is not enough to confirm fitment. Check the exact engine model, year range where provided, cowling shape and whether the cover is intended for a standard or vented application.

What material and protection should I look for?

Choose a marine-grade fabric appropriate to how and where the item will be used. Look for useful protection against rain, sunlight and general outdoor exposure, but also check how the cover manages condensation. Vents can help air circulate and reduce trapped moisture under an engine or boat cover. Strong seams, reinforced stress points, UV resistance and reliable fastenings are often more important than fabric weight alone.

What should I confirm before ordering a cover?

Have the exact make, model, year or model code and your key measurements ready. Confirm whether the cover is for a boat, console, seat, outboard or another specific component, and whether it must clear rails, windscreens, steering controls or other fittings. Check the intended use, fastening method, material, colour, ventilation and any stated exclusions. If the fit is uncertain, send us the part number, engine details, dimensions or clear photographs before ordering.

Choosing the right boat or outboard cover

Boat covers are designed for different applications, so the right choice depends on what you are covering and how it will be used. Before ordering, check the boat’s overall length and beam, the position and height of the windscreen or console, seating layout, and any raised fittings that affect the cover shape.

A storage or mooring cover is not automatically suitable for trailering. If the cover will be used on the road, confirm that it is designed for trailering and that the required support poles, straps and tie-down points are available. For outboard engine covers, use the exact engine make, model, horsepower and OEM reference where available rather than choosing by horsepower alone.

If you are unsure, send us the boat or engine make, model and measurements before ordering. We can help check the likely fit, cover type and application.
