Towing your boat with a "mooring" cover will cause damage to the cover
I go through this constantly with boat owners. They want a mooring cover for their boat, so I make them a perfect cover for MOORING.
what is mooring ? It is when the boat is in the water, tied up at the dock or sitting still on the trailer as in "storage".
When people want a moooring cover, I always ask the people if they will be towing the boat with the cover on and they say NO.
If they say, "sometimes I will tow it" then I make them an "Over The Road Cover" or a "Towing Cover"
So what do they do... Hitch the boat up to their car or truck and tow that mooring cover down the Highway.
Why is that bad ? When you tow your boat down the highway, you are reaching speeds of maybe 60mph.
As a result the mooring cover will sustain damage because it was not made for "over the road use".
You would never have a wind speed or wind pressure of that magnate while mooring, unless you have tornado or hurricane blow by.
A towing cover or over the road cover is made low and tight.
A mooring cover is made tall so the rain will run off easily.
