What do you use for covering your outboard?

[Angelina_Summer]

I'd like to protect my investment from sun damage. Before I call the shop and find out if they have one for me I'm curious what everyone else uses. If there's any creative ideas that will save me money, let's hear them. It's a 9.8 and I would expect to spend more than $50.

I've used generic ones you can buy from Cabelas or Bass Pro, and they sinch up from below the cowling with a drawstring. They worked ok but were butt ugly.

Been to alot of "different" places to fish and the one thing that is universal is an old t-shirt. Just pick a ugly white one. Keeps it cool too

I've got a Yamaha 150 cover you can have for $25. A bit big though. Its as new.

Thanks everyone. The dealership wanted $32 for a generic one. Just picked one up on sale at princess auto for $8. There's a few left on the shelf btw.
