Been reading a lot guys, ready for a tight fit custom on the HTM. It seems like the two to go to are King Kid or Custom Canvas. I live in Glendora, so CC is convenient. Wanted to get input from you guys on who I should go to or if there are other options?

Monica is the best. Getting my trailer painted this week and having her do another cover for me. The quality is amazing and she doesn't allow me to make mistakes from all the people that tell me what I should do.

I do recommend doing the underlayment liner though. If you do tow with a cover, always put blue tape between the straps and the gel.

10-4, do you have the underlayment liner sewn in? Just got off the phone with Ron and they are recommending to do it separate since the soft material dies faster

No, I always do it separate. You also want to be able to wash/clean them separately.

When I met Monica it was about 2009 or so when the economy sucked and I went in there all piss and vinegar thinking I could get a smoking deal. She shut me down, explained to me what I wanted and I finally gave in. When I picked up my boat, I realized she knew what she was doing and didn't allow me to make mistakes. Now, I just drop things off and tell her to do it her way.

I drop in there from time to time and had a cover for my bimini made. While there a young buck came in just like I did years back...A week later he posted a big thing on the Hallett owners facebook site how pumped he was on his new cover.

You can find cheaper, but Custom Canvas is the best

I traveled from Nor Cal to have CC do mine. I don’t have that boat anymore but the cover held up well and fit perfectly

I have had custom canvas do all of mine.

That said there’s a new guy in Havasu, and he does some bad ass shit!

I have known Ron and Monica for about 40 years, Custom Canvas would be the first choice on my list!
