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 Sea Craft 23 T-Top cover is crafted from 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric as the standard option, with 7oz solution-dyed and premium Sunbrella acrylic also available. Solution-dyed fabric holds its color for 5–7 years, while Sunbrella acrylic extends that to 8–10 years of UV and mildew resistance.
Yes. The Sea Craft 23 T-Top cover is pattern-cut with reinforced cutouts that wrap cleanly around the T-Top support legs. The hardtop remains exposed for ventilation while the cover protects the hull, console, and cockpit below.
Installation takes under 5 minutes with no tools required. Drape the cover over the Sea Craft 23’s cockpit, align the T-Top cutouts around the support legs, and secure using the adjustable strap-and-buckle system. The hem cord locks at the rubrail for a snug, secure fit.

Sea Craft 23 T-Top Boat Cover — Classic Center Console All-Weather Armor
The Sea Craft 23 sits at the heart of the Sea Craft lineup — a 23’0″ center console with an 8’0″–8’2″ beam and roughly 2,900–3,070 lbs of solid fiberglass construction built on Carl Moesly’s variable deadrise hull platform. Founded in Fort Lauderdale in 1961, Sea Craft pioneered the graduated-angle hull that runs steeper at the keel and flatter at the chine, and the 23 puts that engineering to work with up to 225 hp on a single outboard, 100 gallons of fuel, and a foam-filled box stringer system that eliminates wood entirely. Whether the boat sits at the dock, on a lift, or on a trailer, a custom-fitted T-Top cover from Sea Craft boat covers keeps the console, cockpit, and fishing gear sealed against sun, rain, and salt corrosion.
Tailored to the 23’s Proven Offshore Layout
This cover is pattern-cut to the Sea Craft 23’s specific hull dimensions, with reinforced cutouts that wrap around the T-Top legs without binding on the wide gunwales or coffin box forward. The design accounts for the 23’s cored transom, large deck space, and storage lockers — every component stays protected while the cover maintains a clean, wrinkle-free drape. Installation takes one person under five minutes: drape, align the T-Top cutouts, strap, and buckle. The reinforced hem cord seats at the rubrail for a secure lock, and the adjustable tie-down straps hold tight during trailering. With a draft of approximately 16 inches, the 23 handles standard boat ramps without issue. The Sea Craft 25 T-Top cover extends the same precision fit to the twin-engine offshore model.
Durability That Matches No-Wood Construction
Sea Craft built the 23 with a solid fiberglass bottom and cored hull sides — no wood to rot, no structure to compromise. The cover fabric follows the same ethos: 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric delivers 5–7 years of UV protection, water resistance, and mildew defense, while Sunbrella acrylic pushes that to 8–10 years with industry-leading fade resistance. Double-stitched seams, DWR treatment, and breathable weave construction keep rain out and trapped moisture from forming underneath. Every cover ships with a 2-year manufacturer warranty and free standard delivery across the continental U.S. For versatile protection options beyond T-Top covers, boat shade kits offer additional coverage for open-cockpit days on the water.
