Any recommendations on where to buy a cover for a 2018 242x? Mooring, trailering...

Thanks,
Tim
 
Although not cheap, the Yamaha cover works very will for me... will made and perfect fit
 
Get the deluxe cover. Order from Yamaha Sprots Plaza up in Oregon. Free (but somewhat slow ground shipping) and no sales tax. And about the best price you’ll find around anywhere for the OEM cover
 
I'm looking to purchase as well for my 242x

I use the Yamaha cover for my 2016 242 limited S. It is well made and fits perfectly. The boat is on a lift behind my house on Marco Island, Florida. It stood up to Hurricane Irma. Stayed intact and mostly waterproof. It was expensive, but worth it.

Sorry Tim, I forgot to mention that I purchased it from Sunsport Cycle and Watercraft in Ft. Myers, Florida.

Just bought the deluxe cover for my ‘17 242 SE from Yamaha Sports Plaza. Was $407!!

I was gonna return mine to save $300 bucks but I got on their website and it’s $693?? Is there something I’m missing ?
 
Oops...you’re right the cover is $693. Also bought the bimini in same order for $407. Unintentional fake news!
 
So 693.00 is correct?
 
Check on eBay. I just purchased a cover for our 16' AR240 for $325 (Brand New) from a dealer listing. Just a thought.
 
which brand ?
