My 13 Sport cover finally gave way to the elements. My boat has no rails. The last cover had the outboard cover attached and with the draw rope in the hem of the cover. It also had the tie down straps attached to the hem as well. Sure wish I could find one like it. Seems my cover came from Cabela's but not sure about that. Any Sport owners got a cover recommendation

After much searching, I finally found the same cover that I bought from Cabela's many years ago. The cover from Cabela's was a perfect fit trailerable boat cover with the sewn in outboard cover. Since Cabela's said my cover was discontinued and they could no longer order from the MFg, I asked who made the cover. They told me Canvas Products Company supplied the cover, and they even gave me the mfg number. I found Canvas Products on Ebay and called them asking about the mfg number. I was told they supplied Cabela's with the covers but no longer dealt with them. They advised me they had not changed the pattern and I could order one just like the one I had.
You can see the info on the cover that I purchased thru making an offer on Ebay, which they excepted. The original cover I had from Cabela's was a cotton polyester in Grey. This cover on Ebay is a much better material, however they have the cotton polyester for less.
Once I get the cover in a few days, I will post a new message about my new cover.

Lew,
Just spoke with the Canvas Products Company folks - very nice and professionla customer service. Please let us know how the cover works out, as I'm thinking about ordering a full boat and console cover from them.
Thanks
