Has anyone heard of these boat covers from the U.S? While they look decent, you never really know till it's too late to change, especially if they product is coming from the U.S.
If anyone has input as what kind of covers these are, I would appreciate the info.

Thanks,

I did not, but I can recommend you http://coversbyrobert.com
I am happy with the new cover.
They used this TopGun material, Robert said it has a much longer life than Sunbrella.
The cover was ready in 4 days and Robert installed additional snaps for $50. You can see from the picture a longer lip at the bow, so wind won't go under as it was happening with the original one.

I’ve bought snowmobile covers from this outfit, didn’t fit all that well. While trailering had to use bungees to keep cover from flopping around. IMO, I’d recommend finding someone else to make the cover for your boat…….

really? I've had a travel cover and a mooring cover both made by Robert. No complaints. He's a little rough around the edges but an excellent craftsman.

I was speaking of Seal Skin Covers, NOT Robert’s………. Sorry if I was misunderstood.

If you are getting a boat cover made consider getting upgraded snaps . I bought Loxx snaps to replace broken ones on my boat cover and they are the best. They won’t come unfastened until you pull on them to release. I bought mine from a supplier in Barrie. They are also super easy to install . The only downside is they are expensive but well worth it in my opinion.
