Silly question, just was wondering who does,has or won't tow with the boat cover on during long trips? Just cleaned mine up and was thinking of putting mine on to parker. I would think it would create more drag so means shitty gas mileage.

who gives a shit about the gas mileage think about your cover smacking against the gell all the way there...........

We used to shrink wrap the race boat to keep the rain and snow out....Yeah, I know...

Boat covers are really hard on a boat unless it is a custom towing cover with the cotton corners and vents to keep it taught.

A good quality towing cover custom made for your boat should cost in the neighborhood of just north of $1000....

No, I do not own one...

My tow cover is bad ass. I won't tow without it unless I'm going 20 min to puddlestone. Super snug fit and doesn't whip the gel. I do use carpet runner/protector on the windshields and fiberglass below them cause its cheap abd prevents any chaffing. I also use that on the front of my truck to prevent rock chip and having to scrub bugs off. Get home, peel off and clean, unscathed front end.

With the new upholstery I'm using some cheap white bath towels to put on tops if seat and anything touching the cover in motion to keep the new shit new.

Actually the cover should improve gas mileage slightly as it prevents air from pocketing inside the boat interior, however unless it is a super tight custom heavy material cover, as advised in the other posts, I would also advise against it.  I have a custom snap cover for the cockpit on my Liberator, it makes a hugh difference when towing with/without, but this is a cuddy cabin style hull and deep, catches a lot of air.  The full mooring cover for it is not used for towing, just when parked.  I just towed a Bahner 1800 miles home, came with a real nice custom cover but did not use, would rather take my chances cleaning the boat a little than rubbing damage.

More chit to stow away while at the river/lake, big azz kite to remove on a windy day.

Thats all I got
