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.

Tidewater 2200 Bay Center Console Cover — 22-Foot Bay Boat Full-Hull Protection
The Tidewater 2200 Bay is a dedicated bay boat in the 22-foot class — approximately 22’0″ with an 8’6″ beam, roughly 2,800-lb dry weight, and a single outboard rated up to 250 HP. The “Bay” designation signals a hull optimized for shallow-water fishing — shallower draft, lighter weight, and a layout purpose-built for tidal creeks, open bay systems, and inshore reef fishing. With 56 gallons of fuel and a stable 15-degree deadrise hull, the 2200 Bay dominates the inshore water column. A center console curtain adds targeted helm protection between fishing sessions.
Bay-Specific Full Enclosure
This center console cover wraps the entire 2200 Bay from bow to stern — console, seating, casting decks, rod holders, livewells, and engine all completely enclosed beneath a single tent-like shape. The cover peaks at the console and slopes smoothly to the hull edge where the hem cord cinches beneath the rubrail. One person installs it in under five minutes. For the next model in the Large CC lineup, see the Tidewater 2210 Carolina Bay center console cover.
Salt-Tough Fabric for Inshore Life
Bay boats spend their lives in the saltiest conditions — tidal flats, marsh creeks, and the humid coastal air that breaks down unprotected surfaces fast. Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5-7 years of UV and weather resistance, or upgrade to Sunbrella acrylic for 8-10 years. Both fabrics are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and breathable. A 2-year manufacturer warranty covers materials and workmanship. For T-Top coverage on the same hull class, see the Tidewater 2200 T-Top cover.
