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.

Robalo 246 Cayman SD T-Top Boat Cover — Sport Deck Bay Boat Shield
The Robalo 246 Cayman SD adds a sport-deck layout to the proven 246 Cayman platform — a 24’6″ bay boat with a 9′ beam, 16-degree deadrise, and the same shallow 12″ draft that gives inshore anglers access to flats and backwater areas. The SD variant features enhanced seating and a reconfigured cockpit designed for families who want fishing capability without sacrificing on-water comfort. Powered by up to 300 HP at approximately 4,400 lbs dry with 90 gallons of fuel, the 246 Cayman SD maintains the Kevlar-reinforced Hydro Lift™ hull construction that has defined Robalo boats since 1968 in Nashville, Georgia. Protect every surface with a custom-fitted cover from Perfect Fit Boat Covers.
Tailored to the 246 Cayman SD’s Sport Deck Configuration
This cover is pattern-cut to the 246 Cayman SD’s unique sport-deck layout, fitting around the T-Top legs, center console, aft sport-deck seating, forward casting platform, rod holders, livewells, and storage compartments. The SD’s reconfigured cockpit differs from the standard 246 Cayman, and this cover matches those exact dimensions. Reinforced cutouts at each T-Top support leg create a clean seal. Solo installation under five minutes. Fully trailerable. For the twin-engine Cayman flagship, see the Robalo 266 Cayman T-Top cover.
Protection for the Sport-Deck Lifestyle
Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5–7 years of protection, or Sunbrella acrylic for 8–10 years. Both options shed water, resist mildew, and breathe to protect the SD’s enhanced seating, electronics, and upholstery. Double-stitched seams and reinforced stress points deliver lasting performance. A 2-year manufacturer warranty is included. For a similar-size center console option, also explore the Robalo 250 T-Top cover.
