Dear JBB,
once upon a time in a galaxy not too far far away.... I once tried to get a cover for a 21 Daytona (prefab that is). I called high and low and after talking to many many nice (and not so nice) people, I came to the conclusion that you must have one custom made.
Or you can buy a universal cover for 1/10th the price that fits like shiat but still covers the boat
good luck and may you live happily ever after...

I wonder if Eliminator would know of a shop with a patern that could make it without having your boat. ... you know... a turnkey cover. :idea:
My mooring cover was made without my boat present. I even asked them to extend the engine hood back a bit for my jack plate. Of course, my boat is a little more popular than an Eliminator.

My original cover (the one your boat shop owning friend was nice enough to lose) was basically just a 22' pontoon cover, i.e. same width on both ends and it worked just fine. The one he replaced it with was supposedly "custom done" but it didn't fit, was too small and now has holes in the pickelforks from being stretched too tight.
If you have a walmart around you with a liberal return policy, go look for a 22 - 24' pontoon boat cover and give it a try.

Hey it's blue... so it matches the boat. I looked for a pink one and couldn't find it. :rolleyes: :D
I don't see a problem. :D :D :D

You could always go with a Hanson cover.

I am picking up my Eliminator tomorrow. I had the entire interior(including seat frames, engine hatch, and cutty cabin replace. I will be picking it up tomorrow. It took 3 months for them to complete it (because I had it done as new in 1986, when the boat was built. They also touched up the gel-coat.
They are backed up with work this time of year (like everyone else), so you will need to get on there waiting list. But worth the wait.
The entire boat is done in tuck and roll, so the price tag was very(very very) high. This boat is a classic, and changing the interior, would take away the Eliminator look that has kept them in business from the start of the ***boat business.
I'll attach a few pics. I don't have a blower, but I'm sure they could make a "Hot" cover. http://www.***boat.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=12414&stc=1
