Additional information
Choose Your Cover Fabric
7 oz. Polyester — Our entry-level marine cover fabric, woven from 100% polyester fiber at a 7 oz. per linear yard weight. This lighter option keeps the cover manageable for solo handling while still delivering reliable protection against sun, rain, and debris. Backed by a 3-year fabric warranty. Ships in Black.
9 oz. Polyester — Step up to our heavy-duty polyester, engineered at 9 oz. per linear yard for boats that face tougher conditions or extended outdoor storage. The denser weave adds an extra layer of defense against abrasion and weather without adding unnecessary bulk. Protected by a 5-year fabric warranty. Ships in Navy or Black.
Sunbrella® — For boaters who want the best, our Sunbrella covers use 100% solution-dyed acrylic — the same fabric trusted by marine professionals worldwide. Naturally resistant to fading, mold, and water damage, Sunbrella holds its color and integrity season after season. Covered by a 6-year fabric warranty. Ships in Black, Smoke, or Marine Blue.
Both polyester options feature solution-dyed construction, where pigment is infused into each fiber during production rather than applied to the surface afterward. This process locks color deep into the material, preventing any dye transfer to your boat’s gel coat or finish. The result is a cover that stays vibrant without bleeding or rubbing off. Our polyester is also designed to breathe — it allows moisture trapped underneath to vent out naturally, reducing the risk of mildew and keeping your boat dry. The fabric holds its form without sagging or stretching over time, stays lightweight enough for one person to handle, and stands up to prolonged UV exposure and harsh marine weather.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 235 is a significant step up: 300 HP (vs 250), 121-gallon fuel tank (vs 61), and a deep-vee hull (vs modified-vee). It's nearly a foot longer (23'5" vs 22'8") and designed for both bay fishing and offshore capability. The 228 Bay is a dedicated inshore platform; the 235 is a crossover that handles open water with confidence.
Extremely generous. Most boats this size carry 60-85 gallons. The Sea Pro 235's 121-gallon tank gives you range that rivals 26-27 foot boats—you can run offshore, fish all day, and return without refueling anxiety. This capacity is a major selling point for anglers who want to reach distant reefs, wrecks, and structure that are beyond smaller boats' range.
Yes. The deep-vee hull is designed for rougher water, with enough deadrise to cut through 3-4 foot seas comfortably. The 300 HP engine and 121-gallon tank give you the power and range for 30+ mile offshore runs. The 235 is a true crossover—productive inshore with its 14" draft, and capable offshore when conditions allow.
The 239 is a dedicated offshore center console: wider beam (9'1" vs 8'6"), more weight (4,200 vs 3,200 lbs), deeper draft (16" vs 14"), and rated for 350 HP. The 235 is a Large Bay boat that can venture offshore; the 239 is built from the keel up for open water. Choose the 235 for versatility, the 239 for dedicated offshore fishing.
The 235 is rated for 10 persons—generous for a 23-foot platform. The 8'6" beam and 23'5" length create ample deck space for fishing crews and families. Sea Pro's layout maximizes usable space with standard rod holders, storage, livewells, and comfortable seating. Our cover protects the entire deck area from UV and weather damage.
The 235 is tournament-capable: 300 HP for speed runs, 121-gallon tank for all-day range, livewells for keeping catch alive, and enough rod storage for a multi-angler crew. The deep-vee hull handles the rougher conditions that tournament anglers encounter on long runs. Many captains use the 235 as a value-oriented tournament platform.
Our 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric delivers 5-7 years of reliable protection at a value price. Sunbrella acrylic is our premium offering—8-10 years of durability with superior fade resistance. For a versatile boat like the 235 that sees both bay and offshore conditions, Sunbrella's enhanced weather resistance is the recommended choice.
Remove the T-Top cover before tropical storms and hurricanes—no fabric cover can withstand sustained high winds. Follow your marina's hurricane plan for boat storage and strapping. After storms pass, rinse the boat thoroughly, inspect the cover for damage, and redeploy. Our cover handles normal wind conditions up to 40-50 mph when properly secured.
Our 9oz fabric carries a 5-year manufacturing defect warranty. Sunbrella acrylic is backed by 8 years. Both cover seam failures, fabric splits, and construction issues under normal use. Storm damage, UV fading, and wear from improper care are excluded. We build our covers to last and warranty them with confidence.

For serious offshore capability, explore the Sea Pro 255 T-Top cover (25'5", 350+ HP) in our Offshore lineup.

Sea Pro 235 T-Top Boat Cover
The Sea Pro 235 is a Large Bay powerhouse—a 23’5” center console with a deep-vee hull, 300 HP capability, and a massive 121-gallon fuel tank that gives you range rivaling boats several feet longer. This is the boat Sea Pro built for captains who refuse to choose between bay fishing and offshore capability. The 235 drafts 14 inches for inshore access but its deep-vee hull handles 3-4 foot seas offshore with the confidence of a dedicated bluewater platform. At 3,200 lbs with an 8’6” beam and room for 10 people, the 235 is tournament-capable out of the box with Sea Pro’s standard fish-ready equipment package. Born from the Hancock family’s 1989 legacy in Newberry, South Carolina and refined through the 2015 relaunch with Preston Wrenn, the 235 delivers the range and capability that anglers demand at a competitive price. Our custom T-Top cover wraps the hull below the hardtop, protecting gel coat, electronics, and interior from the combined assault of UV, salt, and moisture.
The 235’s deep-vee fiberglass hull is 3D CAD-designed for performance at speed—the deeper deadrise cuts through chop rather than slamming over it, while the efficient hull shape stretches that 121-gallon fuel capacity across full-day offshore trips. Foam-filled construction adds structural integrity and flotation safety. Your T-Top cover is engineered to the 235’s exact hull and T-Top dimensions, with reinforced double-stitched seams, rubrail hem cord, and adjustable tie-down straps. Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric (5–7 years) or premium Sunbrella acrylic (8–10 years)—both UV-resistant, water-repellent, and mold-resistant. The larger hull generates proportionally more fabric, so allow a few extra minutes for cover deployment compared to smaller models.
Large Bay Crossover — Inshore Versatility, Offshore Range
The Sea Pro 235 defines the crossover concept in the Large Bay family. Its 121-gallon tank means you can run 40-50 miles offshore, fish wrecks and reefs all day, and return with fuel to spare—something most 23-foot boats simply can’t do. Back inshore, the 14-inch draft accesses most bay systems and coastal waterways. The 300 HP engine delivers 40+ knot cruise speeds for tournament runs or covering water quickly. For boat owners who want one vessel that does everything, the 235 is the answer. Protecting this versatile platform with a quality T-Top cover preserves its value and appearance—boats that see both offshore salt and inshore humidity need comprehensive cover protection to prevent accelerated degradation.
