Custom Fit Boat Covers for Coastal Skiff Boats
Our Coastal Skiff boat covers are custom-patterned for your exact model — built for these tough, no-wood composite skiffs and flats boats. Coastal Skiff is built by Four Son’s Marine in Fair Bluff, North Carolina — hand-built, all-composite center-console skiffs for inshore and nearshore fishing. Because a skiff covers very differently from a deep-V (low freeboard, open layout, sometimes a tunnel hull), a generic cover rarely fits right. Ours follows your boat’s exact lines. Every cover is made in the USA from marine-grade, water-repellent fabric. (Coastal Skiff is its own brand, not the same as Carolina Skiff.)

Coastal Skiff Features and Benefits
Every Coastal Skiff cover is custom-patterned to your exact model — the 145, 171, 184, 212, or 271, with or without a T-top — so it fits without flapping or pooling.
Built from marine-grade, UV-resistant fabric, our covers stand up to the sun, salt, and humidity these skiffs run in — resisting fading, mildew, and cracking season after season.
On the trailer, at the dock, or in storage, your cover shields the console, gelcoat, and seating from UV, rain, dust, and bird droppings, keeping your Coastal Skiff ready to fish and protecting its value.
Reinforced tie-downs and a snug, tailored cut keep the cover secure and quiet — even at highway tow speed or in a stiff breeze. Proudly custom-made in the USA.
About Coastal Skiff Boats
Coastal Skiff is a line of center-console skiffs built by Four Son’s Marine, a family-owned builder in Fair Bluff, North Carolina. Hand-built one boat at a time with all-composite, no-wood construction — foam-filled stringers and self-bailing decks — Coastal Skiffs are rugged, seaworthy inshore and nearshore boats. The lineup runs from the compact 145 and 171 up to the 212 and the larger 271, with a sister Coastal Flats series (the 195 and 231).
Why Protect Your Coastal Skiff with a Custom Cover?
Time on the trailer and at the dock is when the elements do their damage: UV, salt, rain, and pollen fade gelcoat, stain seating, and wear on electronics. A snug, custom cover protects the console and open deck between trips — keeping your Coastal Skiff cleaner, drier, and ready to fish while protecting its resale value.
Custom-Fit vs. Generic Covers
A universal cover sits loose, traps moisture, and flaps in the wind, chafing gelcoat and loosening fasteners at highway speed — and on a skiff’s low, open deck, a loose cover ponds water. Our Coastal Skiff covers are custom-patterned to your specific model and year for a snug, tailored fit that sheds water and stays put.
Built for the Full Coastal Skiff Lineup
Most cover makers only stock the popular 212. We pattern covers for the whole lineup — the 145, 171, the 184 tunnel hull, the 212, and the 271 — plus the Coastal Flats 195 and 231. Each has a different deck and console, and a T-top changes the fit, so tell us your exact model and we’ll match it. (Just don’t confuse Coastal Skiff with the unrelated Carolina Skiff brand.)
Features of Our Coastal Skiff Boat Covers
Each cover is crafted from marine-grade, UV-resistant fabric chosen to handle sun, salt, and humidity without fading or cracking. Reinforced stitching, tailored seams, and secure tie-downs keep it snug and quiet, while a water-repellent finish helps rain and spray run off instead of soaking through.

How do I choose the best cover for my Coastal Skiff boat?
To find the best cover, use our cover selector tool and input the make and model of your Coastal Skiff. This ensures you find the perfect fit.
What’s the best way to maintain my boat cover?
To maintain your boat cover, brush off loose dirt regularly and rinse with fresh water. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemicals to preserve the fabric's durability.
Which Coastal Skiff models do you make covers for?
We make custom covers across the Coastal Skiff lineup — the 145, 171, 184 (tunnel hull), 212, and 271 — plus the sister Coastal Flats 195 and 231. Tell us your model, year, and whether it has a T-top and we'll match the right pattern.
Is Coastal Skiff the same as Carolina Skiff?
No. Coastal Skiff is built by Four Son's Marine in Fair Bluff, North Carolina, and is a different brand from the larger Carolina Skiff. This page is for Coastal Skiff models — just tell us your exact model and we'll match the right cover.
Does my Coastal Skiff have a T-top, and does that change the cover?
It can. Some Coastal Skiffs run a T-top while others are open console-only, and the two take different covers. Let us know your configuration when ordering and we'll pattern the right fit.
Are your Coastal Skiff covers made in the USA?
Yes — every Coastal Skiff cover is custom-made in the USA from marine-grade, water-repellent fabric built for saltwater use.
