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.

Boston Whaler 170 Montauk Center Console Boat Cover — Timeless Montauk, Total Protection
The Boston Whaler 170 Montauk measures 17’0″ with a 6’10” beam and approximately 1,400 pounds dry — a core Montauk model that has been a fixture at boat ramps and marinas across the East Coast for generations. Powered by a single outboard up to 115 horsepower with 25 gallons of fuel, the 170 Montauk offers all-day range and enough cockpit space for two or three anglers to fish comfortably. Built on the foam-cored “Unibond” hull, this boat carries the unsinkable heritage that has defined Boston Whaler center consoles since 1958. A custom-fitted center console cover from Perfect Fit Boat Covers wraps the entire hull from bow to stern, protecting the console, electronics, and gelcoat from UV damage, rain, and seasonal weather.
Tailored to the 170 Montauk Profile
This cover is pattern-cut to the 170 Montauk’s exact hull geometry — including the 6’10” beam — with a snug fit that follows the gunwale profile without excess material. An elastic cord hem secures the cover at the waterline while an outboard motor cutout at the transom seats cleanly with your engine. One person handles installation in under five minutes. In the Montauk chain, the previous model is the Boston Whaler 17 Montauk center console cover.
Marine-Grade Fabric for a Marine-Grade Boat
Choose from 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric rated for 5–7 years, 7oz for covered storage, or premium Sunbrella acrylic engineered to last 8–10 years. Every option is water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and double-stitched. The breathable construction blocks 99% of UV rays. Each cover includes a 2-year warranty and free standard shipping. Owners with a larger rig can explore the Boston Whaler 230 Vantage T-Top cover built with the same premium materials.
