Your cover does not protect the hull so 2,500 miles or not it won't protect your hull and that is the most exposed part of your boat while towing pal.

I personally would not tow my rib with a cover on but that just me.
"Thats because I would never forgive myself if it ever came off and wiped a family out while driving on the motorway or road.
But I have not criticised anyone for doing so

Mines a 3 lt turbo mate and it would keep well up and pull anything that yours will
And yes it was blowing about like mad even the wife said to me keep well back, it is more noticeable from someone driving behind you.
Don't forget when you was driving about with the axle on you trailer set to far back for some reasons unknown putting a dangerous amount of nose weight on your tow ball and you thought that because it was a Ribquest they are a lot heavier than anyone elses boat.
But there again your a smart arse as well

I had a rubbery canvas one made for my Zodiac GT 3.8, no consol.
You could tuck under it at pop out at the tiller spot on the tube when under way at sea , like a cork in a bottle.
It bungee corded to the "D" clips on the outer tube.With an off shore jacket or wet suit, your snug as a bug in a rug.
