Found a 3ply silver tarp for my boat at Gahnals hardware in Buena Park. One tarp, 20 ft wide by 24 ft long. Covers the whole boat from top to the bottom of the tires.
Paid 45 bucks.
Don't buy the one at walmart, its only 1ply and 12 x 24. TOO SHORT! :mad:
Ganhals has a 20x30 alos for 50 bucks, if someone needs one for a 30 footer, also for 80 bucks they have a tarp with poles that has a length of 20 ft for backing a boat in.
Passing along my findings

Sounds good. I found a great site online to get tarps and everything you need to build a canopy for the boat and rv. http://www.tentcoinc.com/store

Good job canman. That is a great site. As soon as we get the new boat home I can measure and order from their vast selection. Thanks! :D

Just keep those tarps away from your trailer and fenders, if you are covering it directly (without a canopy). They act like sandpaper over time when the wind is blowing it an will scuff the paint. This happend to me when I had mine parked at an RV storage lot. Recommend tying it down tight and putting vinyl tape around the frame or fenders,etc. wink Mark
