Your boat can be damaged if it's not properly covered when you're not using it.

Your boat can be damaged if it's not properly covered when you're not using it. Make sure to
protect it with a strong and durable material such as Safety Components Fabric Technologies'
WeatherMax 80 ($12 to $15 per linear foot,
www.safetycomponents.com). This tough
fabric is made from solution-dyed SaturaMax yarns, to avoid fading from prolonged exposure to the
elements. It's mildew-resistant and 67 percent more water resistant than typical acrylic covers,
preventing common problems like sagging and leaking, yet it maintains breathability. It's
abrasion-resistant, and has more breaking and tear strength than most fabrics. Best of all, it's
less cumbersome and easier to handle, weighing 14 percent less than acrylic covers.
