Boat Stuff Polls for mooring cover 242x

[Jimxo]

I purchased this OEM cover used on Ebay. The seller didn't include the polls and misrepresented the cover, failed to mention this tear. $340.00, not sure what to do?

You can make your own poles out of pvc or broom handles, if you want. I can get you the lengths, if you need them.

Cool thing about the oem poles is the straps that loop around the front and rear cleats to keep the poles up and in position. My last boat didn't have that, so if the cover flapped a little while driving the rear pole would fall down. But, again, that would be easy to duplicate.

I have PVC for now. If you can get me the length I would appreciate it.

That's pretty shit condition for $340, I'd consider opening a claim.


Instead of poles through, get yourself the Hangtyte system - you'll need two. It's way faster than the poles.

I use these, I have three.....One at the back and two at the walk through...along with the OEM cover support.

Agree on Hangtyte...just bought two for my 242. I like the placement of your right on the line of the OEM cover. I put mine too far toward bow

Both poles are same length.

Yeah, I thought that was probably the strongest location on the fabric.
