RVMasking Boat Cover for 17-19ft Boats - Ultra-Thick 1400D Protection

In this review the RVMasking Boat Cover is evaluated as a heavy-duty, protective cover for medium-sized pleasure boats. The bottom line: this cover is best for owners of 17-19ft tri-hull, V-hull, runabout and bass boats who need a substantially thicker fabric than typical 600D or 900D covers; its single biggest advantage is the 1400D ultra-thick fabric combined with dual-layer PU coating that aims to keep moisture and wind out while resisting abrasion. The cover ships as a complete kit with straps and a storage bag and is designed to be a long-lasting, weather-resistant option for seasonal storage and offshore protection.

Key Features

• 1400D Heavy Duty Fabric: The ultra-thick material provides stronger windproof performance and better abrasion resistance than lighter covers, protecting gelcoat and fittings from scratches and dust.
• Dual-Layer Waterproof PU: PU coating on both inner and outer surfaces offers high water resistance so rain beads up and inner moisture penetration is limited.
• Custom Fit System: Eleven adjustable tie-down straps with quick-release buckles plus an elastic hem deliver a snug 360-degree fit to reduce flapping and improve wind resistance.
• Moisture Control: Air vents located on both tail sides cut down on water vapor buildup under the cover to help prevent mildew and trapped dampness.
• Reinforced Stress Points: Double-layer fabric at bow and stern corners, double-needle stitching and bar-tack strap connections increase durability where wear is most likely.
• Complete Kit and Support: The package includes the cover, straps and storage bag, backed by 24-month product support and weekday customer service.

Who It's For

This cover suits owners of 17-19ft boats with beam widths up to 96 in who want a thicker, more wind-resistant option than common midweight covers. It is particularly useful for those storing boats outdoors in mixed weather who value reinforced corners and multiple tie-down points to keep the cover secure.

It may not be the best choice for owners who need a custom-molded cover for nonstandard superstructures or for those who prefer ventilated, breathable materials above maximum waterproofing; some users report variable waterproof performance depending on fit and setup.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Very heavy-duty 1400D fabric that customers praise for perceived durability and thickness.
• High water resistance from dual PU coatings that encourages water beading on the surface.
• Secure fastening system with 11 adjustable straps, elastic hem and quick-release buckles for a tight fit.

Cons

• The substantial fabric adds weight and bulk, making handling and installation more effortful for one person.
• While many find it waterproof, a minority of users report occasional water ingress depending on fit and setup.

Our Verdict

The RVMasking Boat Cover is a solid value for owners of 17-19ft boats who want a notably thicker, abrasion-resistant cover with strong wind resistance and comprehensive waterproof coatings. It is worth buying when a heavy-duty, secure cover and reinforced stress points matter more than minimal weight or a custom fit; careful measurement and correct installation improve waterproof performance and overall satisfaction.
