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 Everglades 250 measures 26'11" LOA (with engines) with a 9'3" beam and 21-degree transom deadrise. Our custom T-Top cover wraps the hull below the hardtop frame and is patterned specifically for the 250's wide-beam hull contours and twin-engine transom layout. We verify your T-Top dimensions before cutting to guarantee a precise fit.
Yes. The 250 is a dedicated twin-engine platform rated for up to 500 HP total. Typical configurations include twin Yamaha F200 or F250 outboards. The twin-engine setup provides the redundancy, handling, and performance that serious offshore anglers demand. Our cover is cut to accommodate the twin-engine transom and fits around both motors cleanly.
The 250 carries 167 gallons of fuel — one of the largest tanks in its class. Combined with 20 gallons of freshwater for the washdown and bait station, this boat is built for extended offshore trips. That kind of range capability means more productive fishing time, and our cover protects your investment when you're back at the dock.
The 250 is a serious fishing machine: 55-gallon livewell, 129-gallon forward fish boxes, dedicated bait rigging station with freshwater faucet and sink, electric anchor windlass, rod storage for 22+ positions, and a starboard transom gate. The semi-enclosed helm with hydraulically lowering windshield provides comfort during long runs. Our cover protects all of this equipment from UV and weather.
Yes — the 250 features Everglades' signature hydraulically lowering windshield, a patented design that provides full wind protection during runs but lowers completely for unrestricted fishing access. UV radiation degrades the windshield's hydraulic seals and tempered glass over time — consistent cover use extends the service life of this premium feature.
RAMCAP construction is what makes the 250 truly special. The patented process uses pre-molded high-density foam core — not sprayed or injected — bonded between hull and liner under pressure. The result is a hull three times stronger than industry standard with zero wood, an unsinkable structure, superior vibration dampening, and a lifetime hull warranty. Our cover is patterned to these precise, consistent hull dimensions.
Yes, but the 250 is a serious tow. At approximately 7,000 lbs rigged with twin engines, you'll need a heavy-duty truck and a quality aluminum trailer. Our cover's reinforced hem cord and adjustable tie-down straps keep the fabric secure during highway transport. The 9'3" beam may require wide-load considerations in some states.
The 250 is a classic twin-engine offshore platform with a 9'3" beam, 167 gallons of fuel, and up to 500 HP — built for dedicated offshore range. The 253 CC is a current-production Hybrid 3-Series model with an 8'6" beam, single engine up to 300-400 HP, and 100 gallons of fuel — designed as a versatile shallow-to-offshore crossover. We carry custom covers for both.
For a boat on a lift — whether a wet slip or covered lift — Sunbrella acrylic is the better choice. Lift-stored boats face constant UV exposure from above and reflected UV from the water surface. Sunbrella delivers 8-10 years of superior fade resistance versus 5-7 years for our 9oz solution-dyed option. Both fabrics resist mold and mildew in the humid marine environment.
Yes — we cover every Everglades model from 21 to 35+ feet, including the 240, 243 CC, 250, 253 CC, and 255 in the mid-to-large size range. Each cover is custom-patterned to that specific model's hull dimensions, beam, and T-Top frame geometry. Browse our Everglades brand page for the complete lineup.
Everglades 250 T-Top Boat Cover
The Everglades 250 is a twin-engine offshore center console that established Everglades’ reputation for building serious fishing machines — a 26’11” platform with a 9’3″ beam, 21-degree deadrise, 167 gallons of fuel, and the patented RAMCAP construction that makes every hull unsinkable. Built in Edgewater, Florida, the 250 bonds pre-molded high-density foam between hull and liner under pressure, creating a structure three times stronger than industry standard with zero wood anywhere. With twin outboards delivering up to 500 HP total, a 55-gallon livewell, 129-gallon forward fish boxes, electric anchor windlass, and Everglades’ signature hydraulically lowering windshield, the 250 is equipped for extended offshore trips where you need every advantage. Our custom T-Top cover wraps the hull below the hardtop frame, protecting your livewell, fish boxes, bait station, helm electronics, windshield mechanism, and all deck hardware from UV degradation and salt corrosion.
What sets the 250 apart from other 27-foot center consoles is the combination of RAMCAP structural integrity and Bob Dougherty’s hull design expertise. The variable deadrise hull transitions from a sharp entry angle forward to 21 degrees at the transom, delivering a dry ride through offshore chop while maintaining stability at rest for drift fishing. The 167-gallon fuel tank paired with efficient twin four-strokes provides cruising range that allows you to fish grounds 50+ miles offshore without worrying about fuel. The 20-gallon freshwater system feeds the bait station and deck washdown, keeping everything clean. Our T-Top cover features reinforced double-stitched seams, a hem cord at the rubrail, and adjustable tie-down straps engineered for the 250’s wide 9’3″ beam. Choose between 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric (5–7 years of protection) or premium Sunbrella acrylic (8–10 years), both UV-resistant, water-repellent, and mold-resistant.
Offshore Range & RAMCAP Engineering
The Everglades 250 represents what happens when RAMCAP construction meets twin-engine offshore design philosophy. The foam-bonded composite hull absorbs vibration and road noise in ways that conventional fiberglass cannot match, resulting in a quieter, more comfortable ride during long offshore runs. The semi-enclosed helm protects the captain from spray and wind, while the hydraulically lowering windshield drops completely for unobstructed 360-degree fishing access. Rod storage for 22+ positions, a dedicated bait rigging station with freshwater faucet, and a starboard transom gate make the 250 a purpose-built fishing platform. Every hour your boat sits uncovered, UV radiation degrades gelcoat, fades teak accents, and deteriorates rubber seals.
