New Arrivals! Custom fit covers for 2015+ model Adventure and Tandem Islands

Easy to install or remove, fits over the hull (like a fitted sheet on a mattress). Straps and pull string adjust for a tighter fit. Cross straps secure the cover on your hull for windy conditions. Heavy duty UV resistant canvas material in a neutral color for better aging.

Now you come out with one that allows you to keep the rudder installed! Lol! Looks good, does it fit a lot better than the original covers?

Yes! These are designed specific for the new Islands. The others, as noted, were universal fit covers.

My original style cover fits like it was made for it and with the rudder down, removal is not necessary. Costs a lot less too! Glad to see yall are working on new stuff though!

Hi any idea when they will be available in Australia?

Usually takes 4-5 weeks for containers to travel there I think, but depends on how the factory there orders from us... we ship a lot of stuff via FedEx when needed.

Can we trade in our previous cover that doesn't fit well? We just bought it last December and only used it in the shop to cover it in the winter and keep the dust/dirt down and has never been used outside. I don't trust it for much else since it doesn't really cover the rear of the ama's and the rudder had to be down.

Your dealer would be the one to ask that question. As we improve products and come up with better accessories... we can't offer trades for older products.

Kinda what I figured, but it never hurts to ask. ;-)

Matt, are these new covers really weather proof? If so I will invest in one, because my AI2 has to sit exposed to the elements in the caravan compound (trailer compound to you) of the 'life-style' village where I live in South Australia.
Look forward to your reply, as in the past I have used car covers which have torn in strong gusty winds!
Cheers Ian (aka vintagereplica) By the way, how do I change my address which is now Victor Harbor, South Australia -and my email address which has changed since joining around 2012 on my profile entry?

They are not waterproof... They are designed for travel, so should hold up. The material is stronger than a car cove and can be adjusted for a tighter fit.
