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.

Scout 215 XSF T-Top Boat Cover
At 21’5″ with an 8’6″ beam, 20-degree deadrise, up to 250 HP, and 82 gallons of fuel, the Scout 215 XSF is where Scout’s Express Sportfish family hits its stride — a crossover platform with the power and range to handle serious offshore runs while maintaining the versatility for inshore fishing and family cruising. The 215 XSF’s 82-gallon tank gives it noticeably more range than the 210 XSF, opening up fishing grounds and destinations that the smaller hull can’t comfortably reach on a single tank. Scout engineers in Summerville, South Carolina, built the 215 on the NuV3 triple-stepped hull with a 20-degree deadrise that cuts through rough water instead of pounding over it — delivering a ride quality in the 21-foot class that typically requires a 23 or 24-foot hull. At approximately 2,776 lbs dry weight, the 215 XSF carries enough mass for a confident offshore ride without sacrificing the trailering ease and ramp accessibility that mid-size boat owners need.
A Perfect Fit T-Top cover for the 215 XSF protects the expanded deck layout, helm electronics, seating areas, and crossover fishing infrastructure below the hardtop from relentless UV, salt, and weather exposure. The 215’s 8’6″ beam — wider than the 210 XSF — creates more surface area to protect and demands a precision-patterned cover that maintains a taut fit across the full beam without sagging or pooling. Choose between solution-dyed marine fabric (5–7 years) or premium Sunbrella acrylic (8–10 years), both secured by reinforced stitching, hem cord at the rubrail, and adjustable tie-down straps sized to the 215 XSF’s specific hull contours. The cover wraps below the T-Top hardtop while leaving the fiberglass roof exposed.
The XSF That Opens Up Offshore
The 215 XSF is the first model in the XSF family where offshore capability becomes a genuine selling point rather than a bonus. The 250 HP ceiling, 82-gallon fuel capacity, and 20-degree deadrise combine to create a platform that handles Gulf Stream runs, reef fishing, and extended bay crossings with confidence. The NuV3 hull’s triple-step design keeps fuel consumption efficient at cruise speeds, stretching the 82-gallon tank further than competitors expect. Your cover protects the fishing and electronics infrastructure that makes those offshore trips possible — helm station, live wells, rod storage, and the deck hardware that accumulates salt and UV damage fastest on boats that run bluewater.
