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
The 245 is built on a deep-V hull variant with a 21" draft — deeper than the 230's 15" draft — providing superior offshore stability and wave-cutting ability. The 140-gallon fuel tank (vs 110 on the 230) extends range significantly, making the 245 EdgeWater's most offshore-capable single-engine model.
The 245's deeper-V hull shape creates a slightly different bow and chine profile compared to flatter-bottomed models. Our custom pattern is engineered specifically for the 245's hull geometry, accounting for the deeper deadrise angle and higher freeboard. The result is a precise fit that follows the hull's lines without excess material.
The 245's 140-gallon capacity and efficient single-engine setup provide exceptional range — typically 150+ miles at cruise speed. This supports full-day offshore trips to deep-water structure and back with comfortable fuel reserves. The cover protects all that fishing gear between these extended expeditions.
The 21" draft refers to how deep the hull sits in the water, not the boat's height on a lift. On a dock lift, the cover fits identically regardless of draft. Our pattern is based on the hull's external dimensions as measured on a level surface, ensuring consistent fit on any storage platform.
Yes. The deeper hull surfaces on a deep-V design are actually more exposed to angled UV rays, especially at sunrise and sunset. Our cover wraps below the rubrail, protecting the hull's gel coat from UV oxidation, chalking, and color fade. This is particularly valuable for boats stored outdoors year-round.
The 245 is a different category entirely — a 4,200 lb deep-V offshore platform versus the nimble shallow-draft Heritage models. It tracks straighter in following seas, cuts through chop more efficiently, and provides a drier ride in head seas. The trade-off is a deeper draft that limits shallow-water access.
Our covers are engineered for sustained coastal winds common at open-water marinas — typically 25–35 knots. The reinforced stitching, heavy-duty hem cord, and adjustable tie-down straps distribute wind load evenly across the cover. For tropical storm conditions (39+ knots sustained), remove the cover as a precaution.
One piece. Every Perfect Fit T-Top cover is a single continuous piece of solution-dyed marine fabric that wraps the entire hull below the T-Top hardtop, including the engine area. No separate boots, sections, or snap-on pieces — one cover protects everything.
Rinse with fresh water after every few uses or at least every two weeks in saltwater environments. A full wash with mild soap twice per season removes accumulated salt crystals, pollen, and organic material. This routine extends fabric life by 1–2 years and maintains water repellency.
Yes. We ship to homes, marinas, boatyards, and dealers. The cover arrives in a compact folded package with installation instructions. Many EdgeWater dealers are happy to install the cover on-site as part of their service.
EdgeWater 245 T-Top Boat Cover
The EdgeWater 245 is the offshore specialist in the Center Console Series — a 24-foot deep-V platform with a 140-gallon fuel tank, 300 HP max power, and a hull designed to eat open-ocean conditions. The 245’s SPI hull uses the same vacuum-infused, foam-filled, unsinkable construction as every EdgeWater, but with a deeper-V deadrise that provides superior wave penetration and stability in offshore seas. At ~4,200 lbs dry with an 8’6″ beam and 21″ draft, this is a boat built for serious anglers who run to deep-water structure and need a platform that performs in rough conditions.
Protecting the 245’s investment-grade hull, electronics, livewells, and tackle systems starts with a properly fitted T-Top cover. Perfect Fit’s solution-dyed marine fabric wraps the 245’s entire cockpit, console, and deck hardware in UV-resistant, salt-proof protection — patterned to the deep-V hull’s exact contours with reinforced stitching and adjustable tie-downs. The cover maintains its fit year after year thanks to the SPI hull’s dimensionally consistent construction.
Deep-V Offshore Performance
EdgeWater engineered the 245 for anglers who prioritize ride quality and offshore range. The deeper draft and sharper deadrise angle slice through chop that would pound flatter hulls, delivering a drier, more comfortable ride to offshore waypoints 30+ miles from shore. The 140-gallon tank provides the fuel reserves for these extended runs, while the single 300 HP outboard keeps operating costs lower than dual-engine competitors. Our T-Top cover accounts for the 245’s unique hull profile — deeper freeboard, sharper entry, and higher bow — ensuring complete coverage without pooling or sagging.
