Cover for RIB on drive-on dock

[InlandAlex]

Hi All,

Looking to put my searider onto a drive on dock by the end of this year.

What is the best solution for covering it? Obviously you can't get straps underneath so is it held on by elastic beneath the tubes? Or should I get a console only cover?

Any cover brand recommendations also highly appreciated

Many thanks

I have a cover with a strap that runs round underrneath the tubes, and use aa ratchet strap (self fitted) to tighten it.

I've got an all over cover made by a local cover maker with elastic running around the hem of the cover. It's tied across the transom which is what puts the tension on it. On a drive on dock you made need to have the tensioning part on the side.

I've got a console / seat cover as well which I find useful for when I'm out and about. It keeps the seats dry, stops seagulls crapping on them and hides things from prying eyes.

As I need to sew up a cover for my RIB I have saved covers and features I liked. I have a few photos of RIBS with the cover attached to the rub rails, and that is how I would do it for a floating dock.
