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
We offer three fabric tiers for the 2550 GTS. The 7 oz polyester provides lightweight protection for boats stored under cover. The 9 oz solution-dyed polyester — our most popular option — delivers a tighter weave with superior UV resistance and mildew protection, rated for 5 to 7 years of continuous outdoor use. The premium Sunbrella acrylic upgrade extends that to 8 to 10 years and offers maximum fade resistance, making it the top choice for 2550 GTS owners who dock their boat in full-sun conditions year-round.
Yes — the cover is custom-patterned with reinforced cutouts that wrap precisely around the 2550 GTS's factory T-Top support legs. The fabric attaches at the underside edge of the T-Top hardtop roof, then drapes down around the support posts and extends to the hull's chine. The white fiberglass hardtop remains fully exposed on top while everything below it — console, leaning post, cockpit, and hull sides — is enclosed. Reinforced binding at the cutouts prevents fraying where fabric meets the T-Top legs.
Installation takes under five minutes working solo. Drape the cover over the T-Top frame from the hardtop attachment points, letting the fabric fall naturally around the support legs. Pull the cover forward to the bow and aft to the transom, then down each side. Secure the hem cord along the rub rail and fasten the adjustable tie-down straps underneath the hull. The cover is patterned to the 2550 GTS's 25'5" length and 8'6" beam, so everything seats into position without forcing.
No — please remove the cover before towing your Blazer Bay 2550 (GTS). 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.
The cover creates a complete barrier over every exposed surface below the T-Top hardtop. The helm electronics, fishfinder display, VHF radio, leaning post with rod holders, aerated livewells, insulated fish boxes, and all cockpit upholstery are fully enclosed. UV rays, rain, salt spray, bird droppings, and pollen are blocked from reaching these surfaces. The 2550 GTS's tournament-grade fishing features are all accounted for in the custom pattern.
Your Blazer Bay 2550 (GTS) 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.
The cover is water-resistant with a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish that causes rain and spray to bead and roll off. It is engineered to breathe rather than seal completely — a fully waterproof cover on the 2550 GTS's 8'6" beam would trap significant humidity underneath and promote mildew on the upholstery, electronics, and gel coat. The breathable construction allows air circulation while blocking direct water contact, which is the ideal balance for a tournament bay boat that may sit covered between trips.
The cover is patterned to fit the standard-production Blazer Bay 2550 GTS with a factory T-Top. Blazer Boats has maintained the 2550 GTS's core hull dimensions — 25'5" LOA and 8'6" beam — consistently across production runs. If your boat has significant aftermarket modifications such as a custom tower or oversized outboard bracket that alter the hull profile, contact us to confirm fitment.
The Blazer Bay 2550 (GTS) cover is available in 9oz solution-dyed polyester in Navy or Black, 7oz polyester in Black, or premium Sunbrella acrylic in Marine Blue, Black, or Smoke. Choose your fabric and color in the order options above.
Shipping is a $30 flat rate per cover within the continental United States. Because every cover is custom-made to order, please allow 1–3 weeks for your Blazer Bay 2550 (GTS) cover to be made and shipped — you'll receive tracking information as soon as it leaves our facility.
⏱️ Current lead time: 1–3 weeks — every cover is custom-made for your boat.

Blazer Bay 2550 GTS T-Top Boat Cover — Tournament-Grade Nearshore Protection
The Blazer Bay 2550 GTS packs tournament-level performance into a 25-foot 5-inch hull with an 8-foot 6-inch beam, approximately 4,600 pounds of dry weight, and power capacity up to 400 horsepower. A 78-gallon fuel tank provides the range for extended nearshore runs, while the 17-degree deadrise cuts through chop with confidence. This is the Guide Tournament Series — Blazer Bay’s most capable platform for anglers who fish competitively and demand every edge. Since 1978, Blazer Boats has hand-built every hull in Pensacola, Florida with 100 percent composite construction and a 10-year limited warranty, making them one of the last true family-owned boat builders in the country. A custom-fitted T-Top cover from Perfect Fit keeps the 2550 GTS sealed against sun, salt, and weather between tournament runs. Explore our full selection of center console boat covers for additional coverage options across all major brands.
Tailored to the 2550 GTS’s Tournament-Ready Deck
This cover is pattern-cut specifically for the 2550 GTS layout — accounting for the T-Top frame and support legs, oversized center console with tournament electronics suite, deluxe leaning post with tackle storage, aerated livewells, insulated fish boxes, and extensive rod holder arrays along the gunwales. The fabric drapes from below the hardtop to the rubrail, locked in place with adjustable strap-and-buckle tie-downs for a rattle-free, wind-resistant fit. One person handles the installation in under five minutes, no tools required. Remove the cover before towing — it’s designed for storage, not highway travel. For Blazer Bay’s flagship crossover hull, see the Blazer Bay 2700 Hybrid Bay T-Top cover designed for the brand’s inshore-to-nearshore platform.
Protection That Matches Blazer Bay Quality
A 4,600-pound tournament platform built with zero wood deserves a cover that holds up to the same standard. The 9-ounce solution-dyed marine fabric delivers 5 to 7 years of UV and weather protection, while the premium Sunbrella acrylic upgrade pushes that to 8 to 10 years of fade-free durability. Both options are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and breathable — protecting the 2550 GTS’s tournament electronics, upholstery, and gel coat from trapped moisture. Double-stitched seams, reinforced stress points, and a rubrail hem cord ensure this cover lasts as long as the boat it protects. Every cover ships with our warranty (1 year on materials and workmanship, plus 3–6 years on the fabric). For the classic inshore fishing model, see the Blazer Bay 2220 Fisherman T-Top cover built for the brand’s dedicated bay boat platform.
