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.
*The warranty periods above are provided by the fabric manufacturer and cover the material itself. For details on what’s included in the warranty for your completed cover, please see our warranty page.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Robalo 222 R T-Top cover is available in 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric rated for 5–7 years of protection, or premium Sunbrella acrylic rated for 8–10 years. Both are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and engineered for saltwater environments.
Yes. The cover features pattern-cut reinforced cutouts that wrap around each T-Top support leg. The hardtop remains exposed while the cockpit below is fully covered.
Installation takes under five minutes solo. Drape the cover over the cockpit, secure the adjustable tie-down straps and buckles at each attachment point, and cinch the hem cord along the rubrail.
No — please remove the cover before towing your Robalo 222 (R). 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.
Absolutely. The cover creates a full barrier over the cockpit, protecting your helm electronics, fish-finder displays, leaning post, rod holders, fish boxes, and all seating from UV, rain, salt, and debris.
Your Robalo 222 (R) 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 DWR (durable water-repellent) finish that causes rain to bead off. It breathes to prevent trapped moisture and condensation from accumulating beneath the cover.
Yes. The cover fits the Robalo 222 R across standard production years with the factory T-Top installed. Hull dimensions and T-Top geometry have been consistent throughout the model's run.
The Robalo 222 (R) 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 Robalo 222 (R) cover to be made and shipped — you'll receive tracking information as soon as it leaves our facility.

Robalo 222 R T-Top Boat Cover — Purpose-Built Fishing Machine Defense
The Robalo 222 R is a 21’6″ center console built on a 21-degree deadrise hull that handles offshore conditions with authority. At 3,200 lbs dry with an 8’6″ beam, 90 gallons of fuel, and up to 250 HP on the transom, the R222 sits squarely in the sweet spot between coastal versatility and blue-water confidence. Robalo’s Kevlar-reinforced composite construction and Hydro Lift™ hull design reflect nearly six decades of saltwater boat building, starting in 1968 and continuing today at their Nashville, Georgia manufacturing campus — the largest single-site boat plant in the world. Keep every component protected between trips with a custom-fitted cover from Perfect Fit Boat Covers.
Tailored to the 222 R’s Dedicated Fishing Platform
This cover is pattern-cut to match the R222’s specific deck layout, including the center console with recessed electronics, leaning post with integrated tackle storage, dual 30-gallon insulated fish boxes, 15-gallon livewell, and under-gunwale rod racks. Reinforced cutouts wrap each T-Top support leg cleanly while the hardtop remains exposed. Installation takes one person under five minutes — drape, strap, buckle, and cinch the hem cord along the rubrail. The R222’s 34″ draft means straightforward ramp access at most launches. Remove the cover before towing — it’s designed for storage, not highway travel. For the next step up in the R Series lineup, see the Robalo 230 R T-Top cover.
Protection That Matches Robalo’s Premium Construction
Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5–7 years of UV and weather resistance, or upgrade to Sunbrella acrylic for 8–10 years of extended durability. Both fabrics are water-repellent with a DWR finish, mildew-resistant, and breathable to prevent condensation from damaging your R222’s 9-gallon freshwater system, electronics, or upholstery. Double-stitched seams and reinforced stress points ensure long-term performance across seasons of use. Our warranty (1 year on materials and workmanship, plus 3–6 years on the fabric) is included with every cover.
