Boat cover for 2019 AR240

[KSN177]

We bought a 2019 AR240 earlier this year and trying to find what everyone is using for covers. I want something to protect it while towing that is easier to use than the shipping cover.. I don't think I will have it docked for long period of times. Any help is appreciated.

Buy the OEM one and be done with it. (It’s what pretty much everyone uses).

I played around with after market covers on my first boat and it was a nightmare. OMG!

We bought the OEM cover the day we bought our AR240 and it is the nicest thing going for sure. I get other boaters commenting on it all the time. It's pricey but I doubt you'll find better.

If you do decide to try something else make sure you get an anti-pooling system or at least use the one that came with the shipping cover.

Thanks for the advice. I figured that was probably the easiest way to go so you know what you are getting. Some people posted that it scuffed their boat when traveling, have you guys had that issue?

I typically don't tow long distances with it which is where I think most folks have seen scuffs. However, I save seen a small amount of scuffing in some areas in the stern. I have taken care of them with a Mr. Clean magic eraser which I also use for scuffs caused by my anchor chain when I have been unable to be super careful. It has taken them right off. If I was to tow a long distance I would probably use some painters tape to cover those areas. The more seasoned folks most likely have some better ideas.
