I have seen some nice mooring/towing type covers on boats that snap onto the windshields, down the gunwales to the transom. Is such a thing possible for an open boat? Without a windshield, there would be no "elevation" difference from bow to stern, so it seems like water would just pond up in the middle.

I think I'm going to have NR make me a Revenge, but I don't have a garage and am trying to figure out how I will keep it protected in the driveway, besides wrapping a tarp over the whole thing. Thanks in advance for the info.

Yes it is possible I have a 20' Super Vee and I have a travel/storage top for it and it works great I will try to get some pic's of it posted for you to look at I have had it for about 2 years now and have never had a problem with it

Run a rope from bow to stern and/or get some slip in wood or metal bows with mounts that attach to the combing or gunnals (sp)

Look at the pictures of mine I just posted. It will not leak and will not hold water in the middle. Contact me and I will tell you all about it. Tom does a couple things nobody els does.
