I decided to get a solo canoe cover for traveling and was wondering what you've been using. The two covers that I'm considering are the RedLeaf Designs Bag Lady custom cover and the Swift stretch fit cover.
We hadn't planned on traveling very far with this canoe since most of the time we travel with a tandem, but we find ourselves taking trips with two solos more often than we thought we would. The one solo is getting on in years and I'd like to minimize further hull degradation from UV exposure without relying on chemical UV inhibitors.
We have Bag Lady covers for the tandem canoes and RedLeaf Designs make a great travel cover, but they're pretty busy right now so I'm also considering the Swift stretch-fit cover, which seems to be in stock. Their size "small" cover should be able to handle a 13ft 8in solo. Has anyone used a Swift cover and what did you think of it?
Are there other options?
