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.
*The warranty periods above are provided by the fabric manufacturer and cover the material itself. For details on what’s included in the warranty for your completed cover, please see our warranty page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Three options: 9oz solution-dyed marine polyester, 7oz solution-dyed polyester, and premium Sunbrella acrylic. All solution-dyed for exceptional fade resistance on the 225 Bay Runner.
Yes. Pattern-cut with reinforced cutouts around T-Top support legs. Wraps the hull below the hardtop, leaving the fiberglass roof exposed. Accounts for the Bay Runner's console and open casting deck layout.

No — please remove the cover before towing your Sea Chaser 225 Bay Runner. Our covers are not designed to be trailered: towing with the cover on can cause severe damage to the cover and voids the warranty. The cover is designed for storage only — on a trailer, boat lift, dry stack, or jet dock — and comes off in minutes at the ramp.
Yes. Full barrier over helm, electronics, casting decks, and seating. Blocks UV, rain, salt spray, and debris.
Your Sea Chaser 225 Bay Runner cover is backed by our manufacturer's warranty for the original purchaser. Materials and workmanship — stitching, straps, buckles, zippers, and other hardware — are covered for 1 year from the purchase date. Fabric is covered for 3 years on 7oz, 5 years on black or navy 9oz, and 6 years on Sunbrella. Covered defects are repaired or replaced after you contact us for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number. The warranty does not cover improper use, accident or negligence, unauthorized modifications, improper care, mold or mildew, incorrectly placed orders, theft or loss, or acts of God — and traveling with the cover on or using it in the water voids the warranty. See our Warranty page for full details.

Sea Chaser 225 Bay Runner T-Top Boat Cover — Legacy Bay Boat Excellence
The Sea Chaser 225 Bay Runner measures 22’1″ with a generous 102″ beam and a dry weight of approximately 2,380 lbs — a dedicated bay fishing platform that earned a devoted following among inshore anglers for its stability, shallow draft, and no-nonsense fishability. Rated for up to 225 HP and carrying 52 gallons of fuel with capacity for 8 anglers, the 225 Bay Runner delivered the perfect balance of power, range, and deck space for redfish tournaments, trout expeditions, and flounder gigging runs. Built by Carolina Skiff LLC in Waycross, Georgia with all-composite, wood-free fiberglass construction, the Bay Runner was engineered from the keel up to handle the corrosive demands of saltwater fishing. A custom-fitted T-Top cover from boat shade collection at Perfect Fit shields the 225 Bay Runner’s console, electronics, and expansive casting decks from UV exposure and weather.
Tailored to the 225 Bay Runner’s Fishing-First Layout
This cover is pattern-cut for the 225 Bay Runner’s T-Top configuration — accounting for the hardtop support legs, center console, and the wide-open deck layout designed for unobstructed casting in every direction. The reinforced cutouts fit precisely around the T-Top frame, and the hem cord traces the rubrail for a secure, rattle-free fit. Installation takes under five minutes solo. Reinforced seams and heavy-duty tie-downs keep the cover secure — and it comes off quickly for a bay boat that moves between ramps chasing seasonal patterns. Remove the cover before towing — it’s designed for storage, not highway travel. Owners who also fish the Sea Chaser 2100 T-Top boat cover will find the same dependable fit across Sea Chaser’s legacy models.
Protection for a Boat That’s Earned Its Keep
The 225 Bay Runner has proven itself over thousands of fishing trips — and a quality cover keeps it ready for thousands more. The 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric provides 5-7 years of UV and weather protection, while Sunbrella acrylic extends coverage to 8-10 years with superior fade and mildew resistance. Double-stitched seams, UV-resistant thread, and a breathable water-repellent finish ensure the Bay Runner stays protected without moisture buildup. Our warranty (1 year on materials and workmanship, plus 3–6 years on the fabric) backs every cover. Sea Chaser owners protecting a Sea Chaser 23 LX center console boat cover will find equally reliable coverage across the full lineup.
