Full Zipper CoverFull Zipper custom covers are Burnham's most popular style for both rowing skiffs and surf skis. This style cover fully encloses your boat for maximum protection from the elements during travel or storage. Burnham’s heavy-duty coil zipper zips from both bow and stern ends, meeting at the rigger location. Double Velcro flaps guarantee a secure closure. Velcro rigger slots (specific to your boat) allow you to cover your boat while fully rigged (only in 1X & 2X cover). Contrasting colour bow and stern ends, reflective safety tape and sewn-in red tail flags are all standard features. This style cover is also available for Coastal Rowing boats.
Premium Covers To Protect Your Rowing and Paddling Equipment
WeatherMax®80
WeatherMax®80 is a resilient, lightweight fabric that holds up in any condition or climate. WeatherMax® 80 is ideal for boat covers anywhere protection from the environment is a primary concern, with a quality, long lasting appearance. WeatherMax® 80 is durable, resisting tears and abrasions. It never exhibits unsightly sagging from age, rain or exposure. The WeatherMax® exclusive HydroMax™ finish delivers unsurpassed water repellency and mildew resistance yet preserves the fabric’s natural breathability. Unlike bulky coated fabrics, WeatherMax® remains soft and supple while allowing moisture to escape from under the fabric, eliminating mold and mildew growth.

Sunbrella® marine fabrics are excellent for boat exteriors, sails, headliners, and others.

Sunbrella® marine-grade fabric is UV and fade resistant, mold and mildew resistant, bleach cleanable, and breathable.

Mold and Mildew Resistant: All Sunbrella fabrics are mold- and mildew-resistant. Should exposure to dirt, debris and the elements cause mold and mildew to occur, Sunbrella marine canvas can be quickly and easily cleaned with a simple bleach solution.
Bleach Cleanable: When tough stains such as mold or mildew occur, Sunbrella fabrics can be cleaned with bleach without losing color.
Burnham Signature 2"x2" Diamond Quilted Lining
Burnham's custom quilted lining provides protection against road and rigger dings, and minor bumps & bruises. While traveling, the quilted lining absorbs the shock and rubbing of sharper areas such as gunwales, washboxes or rigger areas, thus keeping the outer Sunbrella in great shape. Highly recommended for all those who travel!
Will you be storing your boat inside or outside?
When storing your boat outside, Sunbrella®, Aqualon Edge Soft®, or Burnham's new WeatherMAX® is recommended. They are UV resistant material and will protect your boat from the damaging rays of the sun. These covers will last significantly longer than non-UV protective fabrics.
Will you be traveling with your boat?
Burnham has two great solutions. Ordering a Sunbrella® or WeatherMAX® cover with a quilted lining is one option; and Burnham's Aqualon Edge Soft® material with its bonded soft warp lining is the other. The extra lining will add a layer of protection for your boat from unforeseen objects that may hit your boat while traveling.
Should you order a Full Zipper or Strap & Buckle boat cover?
When traveling, a Full Zip cover is ideal because the whole boat is completely enclosed and every part of the shell is covered and protected. It protects against elements such as road salt and diesel fuel on long trips. The Full Zip cover is also good for end of the year storage so that the boat can be cocooned and safe. Strap & Buckle covers are great for storage purposes either in clubhouses or on racks outside. They are also great for daily use because of the ability to put on while the riggers are still on the boat. The Strap and Buckle boat cover covers the hull of the boat and comes up around the gunwales. The cockpit and deck is partially exposed. When traveling with a Strap and Buckle cover, there is a chance debris from the road could come up and hit the cockpit and deck.
