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
Yes — this cover is pattern-cut for the Regulator 24 FS's 24'8" hull with its distinctive forward-seating bow layout. The fabric drapes smoothly over the bow seats ahead of the console, the center console, leaning post, and cockpit while fitted cutouts allow the T-Top support legs to pass through.
Yes. The cover is reinforced with double-stitched seams and a hem cord at the rubrail for highway trailering. At approximately 4,400 pounds dry, the 24 FS is one of the lighter Regulators and trailers well — the cover stays tight and secure at speed with its adjustable strap-and-buckle tie-downs.
The cover is designed for the 24 FS's twin-engine transom configuration (rated up to 400 HP combined). The fabric wraps aft over the transom area while the outboard lower units remain visible below. The pattern accounts for the twin-engine spacing specific to this hull.
Absolutely. The forward-seating bow area is fully enclosed under the cover. UV radiation is the number one destroyer of marine upholstery, and this cover blocks it completely along with salt spray, rain, pollen, and bird droppings that would otherwise degrade the bow seat cushions and vinyl.
Two options: 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric (5-7 year lifespan, available in Navy, Black, or Charcoal) and premium Sunbrella acrylic (8-10 year lifespan, expanded colors). Both fabrics are water-repellent, UV-resistant, and mildew-resistant — engineered for the salt-air environment the Codega hull was designed to handle.
No — the white fiberglass T-Top hardtop roof remains fully exposed on top. The cover wraps the hull below the hardtop from bow to transom, protecting the cockpit, console, seating, and all deck-level components. The T-Top legs pass through reinforced cutouts in the fabric.
Under five minutes. Drape the cover from bow to stern, align the fitted cutouts over the T-Top legs, and cinch the strap-and-buckle tie-downs at the rubrail. No special tools needed — the 24 FS's 8'6" beam is manageable for solo installation.
Water-resistant with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The breathable fabric prevents moisture and mildew buildup underneath the cover, which is more important for long-term boat protection than a fully waterproof barrier that traps condensation against gelcoat and upholstery.
A 2-year manufacturer warranty covering materials and workmanship. The 9oz fabric is rated for 5-7 years and Sunbrella for 8-10 years of useful life under normal marine conditions.
Yes — this cover fits all standard-production Regulator 24 FS models with a factory T-Top. The 24 FS's hull dimensions and forward-seating deck layout have been consistent across production years.
Regulator 24 FS T-Top Boat Cover — Forward-Seating Offshore Versatility
The Regulator 24 FS measures 24’8″ overall with an 8’6″ beam, approximately 4,400 pounds dry, and the signature Lou Codega-designed 24-degree deadrise Sharp Entry hull — a forward-seating center console that blends serious offshore fishing capability with family-friendly bow seating without compromising the ride quality that made Regulator famous. Built in Edenton, North Carolina with hand-laid fiberglass, vinylester resin barriers, and composite coring, the 24 FS handles up to 400 horsepower in a twin-engine configuration with 150 gallons of fuel. The forward seating ahead of the console converts the 24 FS from a pure fishing machine to a family cruiser in seconds — yet the Codega hull underneath still handles Beaufort Inlet on a rough day without breaking a sweat. Pair your cover with boat shade kits for complete sun protection when fishing or cruising.
Tailored to the 24 FS’s Dual-Purpose Layout
This cover is pattern-cut for the Regulator 24 FS’s unique combination of forward bow seating, center console fishing station, and twin-engine transom. The fabric wraps the Codega hull below the hardtop with reinforced cutouts around the T-Top legs, keeping the white fiberglass hardtop roof fully exposed. The cover accounts for the 24 FS’s specific bow shape, console profile, and leaning post. A hem cord and adjustable straps secure the cover for trailering at highway speeds. Installation takes under five minutes solo. The next step up is the Regulator 25 T-Top boat cover, covering the returned mid-size offshore platform that exceeds 55 mph with twin F250s.
Premium Boat, Premium Fabric
A Regulator represents a significant investment in offshore quality — the Codega hull, hand-laid construction, and family-owned attention to detail justify every dollar. Your cover should reflect that. Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5-7 years of UV and salt resistance, or premium Sunbrella acrylic for 8-10 years. Both are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and breathable. Every cover ships with a 2-year warranty within 1-2 business days. For the larger offshore models, the Regulator 26 FS T-Top boat cover covers the bigger forward-seating hull.
