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 Scout 201 cover uses 9.25 oz Sunbrella acrylic marine fabric, the most trusted name in marine canvas. This solution-dyed acrylic delivers superior UV blocking, mildew resistance, and saltwater durability — built to protect your investment for years.
Yes. The cover is custom-patterned for the Scout 201's standard center console layout and 8'4" beam. It wraps the entire hull in one piece, with the cover profile following the console shape for a clean, tailored fit.
This cover accommodates the Scout 201 with its approximately 20'1" LOA and 8'4" beam. The custom pattern follows the NuV3 hull profile and accounts for the console, hardware, and cleats specific to this model.
No — please remove the cover before towing your Scout 201. 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.
Your Scout 201 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 Scout 201 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 Scout 201 cover to be made and shipped — you'll receive tracking information as soon as it leaves our facility.
Because every cover is custom-made for your boat, custom covers can be returned within 15 days of delivery and are subject to a 30% restocking fee. Contact us first for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number — no returns are accepted without one — and send the cover back clean. Return shipping is the purchaser's responsibility unless the error was ours. If your Scout 201 cover has a defect in materials or workmanship, it's covered by our warranty for repair or replacement. See our Return Policy for full details.
The cover wraps the hull and console area. It's designed to work with the Scout 201's single outboard configuration (up to 200 HP). The cover does not wrap the engine — it covers the boat itself for storage and transport protection.
Rinse with fresh water after each saltwater outing and allow to air dry. For periodic deep cleaning, use mild soap and a soft-bristle brush. Avoid bleach, harsh detergents, and pressure washers. With basic care, the Sunbrella fabric will maintain its protective properties for the duration of the warranty.
⏱️ Current lead time: 1–3 weeks — every cover is custom-made for your boat.

Scout 201 Center Console Boat Cover
The Scout 201 CC is a 20’1″ center console that gives you genuine 20-foot capability — wider beam, more freeboard, higher horsepower rating, and the kind of deck space that makes a real difference when you’re working a school of fish or anchoring up for a family sandbar day. The NuV3 triple-stepped hull delivers efficiency and ride quality that belie the 201’s manageable size. This custom-fit cover wraps the entire hull in 9.25 oz Sunbrella acrylic marine fabric.
Sunbrella fabric is the gold standard for marine protection — UV-blocking, mildew-resistant, fade-resistant, and breathable. Available in Navy or Black with up to 6 years of fabric warranty coverage.
Engineered to the 201’s Dimensions
The 201 is Scout’s step-up center console — bigger beam, more boat, more to protect. This cover is patterned specifically to the 201’s hull profile, console position, and NuV3 stepped-hull contours. The wider beam and deeper freeboard compared to the 191 mean a different cover pattern entirely. Every dimension is accounted for in the cut.
Protection That Matches the Investment
A 201 with a 200 HP engine represents real money. This cover protects that investment from UV degradation, rain, bird strikes, and salt air. Adjustable straps and quick-release buckles keep installation easy.
