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
Yes — this cover is pattern-cut specifically for the Key West 152 Sportsman center console hull. It fits the approximately 15-foot-2-inch length with 6-foot-10-inch beam, wrapping over the center console and fully enclosing the outboard engine as one continuous piece.
No — the 152 Sportsman has been discontinued by Key West Boats. However, our cover is still available and fits all model years of the 152 Sportsman. Hundreds of these compact hulls remain actively fished throughout the Southeast.
The 152 Sportsman supports a single outboard between 50 and 80 horsepower. Our cover fully encloses the engine as part of the continuous fabric drape past the transom, regardless of the specific horsepower rating mounted.
The 152 Sportsman is the smallest center console in the entire Key West lineup at 15 feet 2 inches and roughly 950 pounds. Its ultra-compact size makes it one of the easiest boats to cover, trailer, and store. The next size up in the Sportsman family is the 176 Sportsman at 17 feet 7 inches.
We offer two marine-grade fabrics: our heavy-duty 9oz solution-dyed polyester (the most popular choice for durability and colorfastness) and premium Sunbrella acrylic canvas (lighter weight with exceptional UV resistance and breathability). Both resist mold, mildew, and fading.
Installation takes about 10 minutes with one person — the easiest cover job in the Key West lineup. The 152's featherweight frame and narrow beam make it completely manageable solo. Drape from bow to stern, then secure using the elastic hem cord and adjustable tie-down straps.
Yes — the cover is designed for storage but its tie-down straps and hem cord keep it secure for trailering. The 152's lightweight 950-pound frame and compact dimensions make it one of the most trailerable boats available, and the cover stays locked in place during transport.
A center console mooring cover is a one-piece fitted cover that protects your entire boat while in storage. It shields the console, seating, deck hardware, and electronics from UV damage, rain, bird droppings, pollen, and debris — extending the life of your upholstery, gel coat, and onboard equipment.
Our 9oz solution-dyed polyester is the most popular choice — it is heavier, extremely durable, and offers excellent water resistance at a lower price point. Sunbrella acrylic is lighter, more breathable, and provides superior UV protection, making it ideal for boats stored in intense sun year-round. Both fabrics come with manufacturer warranties.
Select your boat model, cover type, and fabric choice on the product page, then add to cart. Every cover ships with the fitted cover, all necessary tie-down straps and buckles, a storage bag, and a detailed installation guide. Most orders ship within 5 to 7 business days.
Key West 152 Sportsman Center Console Boat Cover (Discontinued Model)
The Key West 152 Sportsman is a 15-foot-2-inch entry-level center console that carved out its place as one of the most compact fishing platforms in the Key West lineup. Weighing roughly 950 pounds with a 6-foot-10-inch beam and just 10 degrees of deadrise, this micro-sized modified-V hull was built for protected waters — backwater creeks, quiet bays, and skinny coastal flats. A single outboard between 50 and 80 horsepower pushed the 152 on plane effortlessly, while the 20-gallon fuel tank kept trips simple and day-focused. Though discontinued, hundreds of 152 Sportsman hulls are still actively fished throughout the Southeast.
Our custom-fitted mooring cover wraps the entire 152 Sportsman as one continuous piece of marine-grade fabric. The cover rises over the center console, slopes smoothly toward the stern, and extends past the transom to fully enclose the outboard engine in a natural, slightly loose drape. A hem cord cinches along the rubrail while the bottom edge reaches nearly to the keel, leaving only a thin strip of hull exposed. Pattern-cut to the 152’s ultra-compact dimensions, the cover sheds rain cleanly and stays tight through wind and trailering.
Micro Console — Maximum Protection
The 152 Sportsman may be the smallest boat in the Key West family, but it still deserves full-coverage protection. Choose our heavy-duty 9oz solution-dyed polyester — the most popular option for its rugged durability and colorfastness — or upgrade to premium Sunbrella acrylic canvas for the best UV resistance and breathability available. Both fabrics are solution-dyed through the entire fiber, so color stays locked in permanently through years of sun, salt, and weather exposure.
Effortless Solo Installation
Installation takes roughly 10 minutes with one person — the easiest cover job in the Key West lineup. The 152’s featherweight 950-pound frame and narrow 6-foot-10-inch beam mean you can drape, adjust, and secure the cover without help. Use the included elastic hem cord and adjustable tie-down straps to lock everything down. The cover stays put on trailers and in dry storage, ready for the next outing.
