Outboard Covers UK designing outboard motor covers for all the makes and models

(Don't be fooled by cheaper imitations)

One of the keys to making a good quality product such as marine products has to be the material. Many people have said to us they could make their own cover, but many don't consider what will happen to the material after being exposed to the elements for about 3 months.

Sun, sand and sea salt will destroy steel and even fibreglass so the material used to make any marine products has to be tough! That's why we have a material that is especially designed for this task and we are so confident in our product that we guarantee it for 3 years against fading and rotting.. even if your cover is in the sun every day of the year in the tropics!

"Polysoft® is our answer to these elements. It has been tested to meet the challenges of all our products, it will stand up to 300kg in rip testing. Yet the fabric itself feels reasonably soft like a very light weight canvas, but without all the inherit problems canvas has.

"Polysoft®" is definitely not a canvas or a vinyl as both these products have problems when used in this application. As an example, canvas will shrink and stretch, it is also very rough and would scratch your engine.

Vinyl is probably the worst of the two materials as it will sweat in the sun causing corrosion over time. As an example if you were to place your hand in a plastic bag in the sun for an hour it would sweat the same can be said with your outboard motor, but the time frame will vary. If you ever see a vinyl cover that has been on a motor for a reasonable amount of time feel the inside of the cover and you will probably find it will be wet with condensation. Vinyl is also very abrasive which gets worse with age.

What is "Polysoft®"?

In technical terms the material is a acrylic polymeric impregnated fabric. In other words it is a coated polyester that has a very high breaking strength, abrasion, mould and ultraviolet resistant. It also has good colour fastness and lasting outdoor durability. In fact Outboard Covers offers a 3 year guarentee against fading and rotting. We also offer a 12 month limited warranty on our high quality workmanship.

We have sold covers all over the World & our reputation is second to none for service and quality, which is what we set out to do from the beginning.

The material comes in 8 great colours which can be also put together as a 2 tone effect to help match some of the motor colours. Cleaning our covers is reasonably easy too, you can wash our product in the washing machine or you can either simply hose it off or take it to your local car wash and give it a good clean.

A couple of colours that we make regularly for people are pictured below, however the choice is ultimately yours to mix and match to suit your boat, seat, carpet colour or the environment you are planning to take your boat to.
