Think Before You Shrink

This year, why not try a reusable cover?

Did You Know….?

• Semi-custom covers for most boats under 30’ cost the same as shrink-wrapping for two seasons.
• Reusable covers can last as long as 5-10 years.
• Canvas shops can repair and clean reusable boat covers extending their life even further.
• Installing a reusable cover on a small boat is easy and protects as well as plastic.
• Semi-custom reusable covers are available via online retailers for many boats.
• Recycling shrinkwrap material is costly, time consuming, and difficult.

Ask your marina or local marine retailer for help purchasing, cleaning or repairing your cover. A list of marinas and canvas workers can be found on the Marine Trades Association of Maryland website or in the Guide to Marine Services produced by MTAM each year.
