Gray acrylic-coated polyester sheds rain, packs into the included storage bag, and comes with tie-downs so you can cover up and hit the highway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you run a 14 to 16 foot V-hull bass boat and want a cover that actually goes down the road with you, the Taylor Made BoatGuard 70202 is built for exactly that. It's cut for a V-hull bass hull with a beam up to 75 inches, and it's rated for trailering, not just dockside storage. So you can throw it on at the ramp, cinch it down, and tow home without babying it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is Taylor Made's gray Hot Shot acrylic-coated polyester. It's light enough to handle solo, which matters when you're wrestling a cover over a windshield by yourself at the end of a long day. And it's water repellent, so a passing shower or a rainy tow beads off instead of soaking through. Gray hides road grime and dock dirt better than a light color, and it stays low-key on the trailer. For a bass boat that mostly lives on a trailer between trips, that's the right blend of light weight and weather protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrailering is where a lot of cheap covers fail. They balloon, flap, and tear the first time you hit highway speed. This one ships with integrated tie-downs so you can strap it snug fore and aft and keep it from lifting in the wind. We still tell folks to run the straps under the hull at a few points and pad any spot where a strap crosses a sharp gunwale edge, just to keep the gelcoat happy on a long haul. Take a minute to tuck and tension it properly and it'll ride quiet, no flapping the whole way home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFit is the whole game with a boat cover, so measure before you buy. The 70202 covers boats from 14 to 16 feet in centerline length with a maximum beam of 75 inches. Measure your boat bow to stern down the centerline, then across the widest point of the beam, and make sure you land inside those numbers. A cover that's too big pools water and flaps. One that's too small won't reach the rub rail. This one's sized for the typical aluminum or fiberglass V-hull bass rig in that range, so most 14, 15, and 16 foot bass boats with a standard beam will land right in the window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater management is worth a word. Any trailerable cover sheds rain best when it's pitched so water runs off instead of puddling. On a flat bass deck we like to set a support pole or a small bow under the cover at the cockpit so rain drains to the sides. Skip that and a big storm can pond water in the middle and stress the seams. It's a two-dollar habit that doubles the life of any cover, and it keeps the fabric from stretching out over a wet season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you're done, the cover folds into the included storage bag so it isn't rolling around loose in the truck or the garage. One tip from experience: let it dry before you bag it. A wet acrylic cover stuffed in a bag will mildew, and that's true of every fabric cover out there, not just this one. Shake it out, let it air, then pack it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo who's this for? Anglers who trailer a small V-hull bass boat and want honest protection for towing, off-season storage, and keeping leaves and dust off between trips. It's not a mooring cover for a boat that lives in the water uncovered all season, and it's not cut for pontoons, cuddy cabins, or center consoles. It's a purpose-built bass boat cover from a company that's been making marine covers and tops for decades. Measure once, strap it down right, and it'll earn its keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSized for 14 to 16 ft V-hull bass boats with a beam up to 75 inches for a proper fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for trailering, so you can tow with the cover on\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGray Hot Shot acrylic-coated polyester fabric that's lightweight and water repellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated tie-downs hold the cover snug fore and aft at highway speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWater-repellent finish beads off rain and road spray during a tow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePacks into the included storage bag for the off-season or the truck bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGray color hides road grime and dock dirt and stays low-key on the trailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Taylor Made reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat size boat does the BoatGuard 70202 fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's cut for V-hull bass boats from 14 to 16 feet in centerline length with a beam up to 75 inches.
