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.

Robalo 246 Cayman Center Console Boat Cover — Full-Size Bay Boat Hull Shield
The Robalo 246 Cayman is a 24’6″ bay boat that maximizes inshore capability with a 9′ beam, 16-degree deadrise, and just 12 inches of draft for accessing flats, backwater creeks, and oyster bar shorelines. Powered by up to 350 HP and carrying 90 gallons of fuel at 3,715 lbs dry, the 246 Cayman combines shallow-water access with the power and range to run nearshore structure when conditions allow. Robalo’s Kevlar-reinforced Hydro Lift™ hull delivers a stable platform for sight-fishing and poling while handling chop on the way home. Built at Nashville, Georgia since 2001. This full-hull cover pairs with a center console curtain for maximum cockpit protection.
Tailored to the 246 Cayman’s Expansive Bay Boat Deck
This center console cover wraps the entire Robalo 246 Cayman hull — console, lean bar, forward and aft livewells, bow casting platform, rod holders, and all cockpit surfaces are enclosed and protected. The cover is pattern-cut to the 246 Cayman’s generous 9′ beam. Adjustable straps, buckles, and hem cord at the rubrail provide a tight seal. Installation takes under five minutes solo. Trailerable at highway speeds. For the dual-console variant, see the Robalo 227 DC center console cover in the Robalo lineup.
Protection for the Serious Bay Boat Angler
Select 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5–7 years of UV and weather protection, or Sunbrella acrylic for 8–10 years. Both are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and breathable — essential in the humid environments where bay boats operate. Double-stitched seams and reinforced stress points ensure lasting durability. A 2-year manufacturer warranty backs every cover. For the T-Top version of this same hull, see the Robalo 266 Cayman T-Top cover.
