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.

ShearWater 27 CC T-Top Boat Cover — Flagship Twin-Engine Offshore Protection
The ShearWater 27 CC stretches approximately 27’ overall with a 9’ beam, roughly 5,500 pounds dry, and a deep-deadrise Pad-Vee hull — the largest and most offshore-capable center console in the ShearWater lineup. Built by American Marine Sports at their Groveland, Florida facility to NMMA standards, the 27 CC handles up to 500 combined horsepower on twin outboards with approximately 150 gallons of fuel for extended bluewater range. While ShearWater built its reputation on bay boats and the LTZ inshore series, the 27 CC proves the Pad-Vee hull design scales to serious offshore capability — the deeper deadrise cuts through head seas while the streamlined hull design maintains the fuel efficiency ShearWater is known for. With corrosion-resistant Deutsch connector wiring, waterproof console, and cartridge-style livewell pumps, the 27 CC is built for the salt. A center console curtain pairs with this T-Top cover for full helm protection.
Flagship Fit for ShearWater’s Largest Platform
This cover is pattern-cut for the 27 CC’s deep-deadrise offshore hull, twin-engine transom, wide 9’ beam, and the most spacious cockpit in the ShearWater lineup. The fabric wraps the hull below the hardtop with reinforced cutouts around the T-Top legs, while the white fiberglass hardtop roof stays fully exposed. A hem cord and adjustable straps secure the cover for dock lift storage. Installation takes under five minutes solo even at 27 feet. The XTE offshore platform is the ShearWater 250 XTE T-Top boat cover, covering the mid-size extended offshore hull.
Offshore Pad-Vee, Premium Fabric
The 27 CC takes the Pad-Vee hull concept to its largest expression — a hull that started in the bays and grew into legitimate offshore capability. The cover must handle the full spectrum of offshore salt, UV, and weather exposure. Choose 9oz solution-dyed marine fabric for 5-7 years of protection, or premium Sunbrella acrylic for 8-10 years. Both are water-repellent, mildew-resistant, and breathable — critical for extended dock storage. Every cover ships with a 2-year warranty within 1-2 business days. For the bay boat lineup, the ShearWater 25 LTZ T-Top boat cover covers the full-size LTZ with its shallow-draft Pad-Vee hull.
