We have had the cover on for a while now and it is great. It drains well whenever we get thunderstorms. My husband is pleased with it.

I have a pontoonstuff cover too, its very nice and has lots of room. My bimini folds flat so its not an issue.

We are looking to buy a new cover for our 2012 Bentley Encore and have done some research. All seem to have negative reviews. Anyone have any good reviews for any boat cover? Ours came with one with snaps ($700) and lasted for two years and then started ripping apart. Its hot and extremely humid where we are.

2nd problem. Getting the mildew off the vinyls seats. The plastic tarps we've used this past year has left a mess of mildew on the vinyl seats. We have tried every product made for marine vinyl and nothing is getting it off. Any recommendations?

Thank you!

I cleaned my spotty seats with Mean Green Mildew Destroyer (Dollar General) but reading the label it's just household bleach diluted 1:1 with water. Sponge it on, scrub a little if it helps, and rinse it off in a couple minutes. Don't let the bleach stay on the stitching bc it weakens thread.

Covered the boat for 3 weeks till my next visit...and all the mildew was back--and more. Talking to my neighbor (who has a very new pontoon with a proper OEM snap-on cover) and he's had the same trouble this year. Crazy weather season that seemed to promote mildew growth.

I'm also suspicious about all these "breathable" boat covers. Anything coated with urethane to repel rain is NOT going to breathe. Why did all the manufacturers abandon canvas?
