Says it all in the title: Did your shipping cover come with a storage bag? I thought I read in the owners manual to store the shipping cover in the supplied bag.
My shipping cover didn't, my mooring/trailering did. The mooring/trailering cover is a purchased accessory. Some dealers add it in to the base price and just include it at their cost, others don't...some may offer it as incentive, but don't be fooled, there is no free lunch, you pay for it one way or another. LOL, some dealers even "sell" you the shipping cover, which is virtually free, as the boat is shipped to the dealer in that cover. But it has what it is installed with and nothing more. The shipping cover is not a very good storage option. It will not breath. The boat is virtually dry when shipped, not even a battery in the boat. So the shipping cover is ok for shipping and even storage at that point, but after you use the boat, fill with fuel, battery(s), use it and have wet or damp areas, that storage cover will help you grow mold and mildew. The mooring/trailering cover is a breathable Surelast or Sunbrella material that allows damp conditions to dissipate without allowing molds to get a foothold. Wet on the other hand is not good no matter what you use if you cover it. A wet boat should be dry before installing any cover.
