I’m looking for basically an indoor boat dust cover that is soft, with breathable fabric, very light, with an elastic edge. I had one, super lightweight, almost see through, easily home machine washable, finally wore out after many years, I cannot find similar now.

This is for an old school jet boat.

Any one know where to turn.

I store in a warehouse, I put it away clean, but the seats, carpet and bilge still need to air dry with a cover installed. No fans and I may not see it for weeks between use.

I had one custom made for my old Howard Bullet. Same material Cover craft uses for their indoor dust covers. IN stitches Lake Havasu did it for me. Turned out great.

I use old Army surplus parachutes. Fine them on Ebay for like $35. Big, round, but not elastic around the bottom. I let mine just drape to the floor. Probably wouldn't take much to add elastic.

We’ve been together since 1974, I’m vintage 1970 myself.
Still rocking an old school 455 Olds, but it’s built by a pro. Last one ran a really hard 16 years until a rod bent.

Custom Cover in LHC made a nice lightweight nylon cover for us.

Can't technically tow with it but it will stay on from the storage unit to the house.

It's been quite a while, but I got just what you're looking for at Bass Pro Shops. Nylon outer shell with flannel inside, edged with elastic. It's been over 10 years, but it was under a hundred dollars and fits my 23-25, but not tight, would probably go a couple feet bigger. Actually came with straps that I threw away, couldn't imagine trying to tow with it.

West Marine? Even Amazon has inexpensive covers.
