OPTIONAL
Cobalt mooring covers are made from marine canvas duck, a cotton/polyester material,
the best material for storage of your Cobalt. It has the ability to breathe properly, a trait
other materials, especially synthetics, do not have to the same degree. Mooring covers
are recommended by Cobalt for any storage longer than a few days. Mooring covers are
not recommended for trailering in that they cannot be tied down tightly enough in
trailering conditions to keep them from moving around slightly on the gelcoated
fiberglass surface. This movement can damage the gelcoat causing a dullness or even
scratching.
For storage, we recommend an optional mooring cover made of marine canvas duck that has
the ability to breathe and properly protect the gelcoat finish on the deck of your Cobalt. Do not use convertible
tops, side curtains, aft curtains, tonneau covers, etc. for long term storage. These tops were not designed for long
term storage. Adequate ventilation is questionable and mold/mildew may form. For more information on
appropriate covering for long term storage, please see your Cobalt dealer.

THE FOLLOWING IS THE RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE
FOR STORAGE OF THE TOP:
a. Disconnect the straps from the side of the boat and allow them to hang free.
b. Disconnect the top snaps from the windshield. (At this point, the two bows should
still be separated.)
c. Grasp the bows and fold them together. (Allow the canvas to gather between the
bows.)
d. Roll the canvas around the bows. (As you roll the canvas, assure its tightness and
pull the side of the canvas to prevent wrinkling.)
e. Slide the boot over the canvas and zip.
f. Remove the top from the top mounts and stow the top in the “top storage area”.
Make sure all canvas is completely dry before storage to prevent mildew.
