snap on covers for ssv

[hunterp]

Can anyone tell me the cost and difficulty of adding the snap on covers to an ssv? I have a 2002 Launch SSV with the tarp type cover and would like to switch it to the snap on type. Ideas???

I would get with your local dealer for an installed price -- if they are reasonable, let them do it. Mine came with the snap on -- my last one had the tarp like yours -- love the snap on, it's the way to go, BUT, hang on to your tarp cover also. I'm going to order a tarp cover to put over the snap on when storing for any length of time outside -- it better protects the gel coat and is more water-tight than the snap on -- you really need both to do it right.

Bag the snap-on, the best cover is a custom made tarp style. My experience with snaps is that they break after a couple of years and waxing around them is a nightmare.
