Winter Boat Covers

After divesting itself of their winter storage business in 1991, Fisher and Sons returned to the market in 2003. Spending three years of modifying different versions, a new model of winter boat cover was launched to go along with the tried and true Canvas Winter Storage Cover. Using an industrial Vinyl and a heavy grade Poly, an economical and lightweight cover was developed. With half the weight and approximately 60% of the cost of the canvas cover, the Vinyl/Poly Cover has steadily gained a presence in the winter boat cover market. In the few years that it has been on the market the Vinyl/Poly Cover is covering boats from Connecticut to Maryland.

Though the Canvas and the Vinyl/Poly cover are both fabricated with the same "panel and section" method, there are many differences. Please see our FAQ for more information
