      So far I'm strongly inclined to a Monster MT2, as it most closely resembles in form and function my preferred Titan.  I'm in conversation with Monster currently, as to my anal-retentive attention to detail regarding mounting both the tower and a bimini to best effect (best, anyway, I see it, to drill, tap, machine screw, and Loctite blue dissimilar metals bimini fastenings, and oversized base and backing plate support for fiberglass).

      Meanwhile, Scott has suggested in a flyby as he goes in for open heart bypass surgery that perhaps, after all, a Titan might be made affordably.

      So, as the boat won't be seatrialed, let alone sitting where we can do something with/to it, for the moment, the research continues.

      But, since I may have your attention again, does anyone have the gunwale spread distance just aft of the side windows on an 02 21' Sunscape, and likewise, just aft of the handrails in front of the windshield?  And, putting all my begs in one askit, are there any impedimentia under those areas making drilling/bolting challenging?

      Thanks for any knowledge!  The boat's 93" beam will make for careful  docking with the dock roof supports' spread 100"...

    • I use the starbrite waterproofing on my cover too. My new $950 cover, from a canvas shop, started leaking after the 5th year. Really disappointed with the fabric, whatever it is.

    • I have used this in the past and it worked nicely. It was on a much newer cover, but it would only be a $50 gamble to see how it does.

    • A cover that old, I would probably recommend replacement.  Sounds like there’s a lot of degradation in that fabric if it’s leaking that badly.  The chemicals are hit or miss, they might add some more life back in but that fabric is still gonna be 15+ years old and ready to tear in a strong windstorm.  I bought a backup sunbrella cover through bald mikes for around $750.  It’s really nice, trailerable, and durable.  I’m pretty sure someone has a decent cover on the classifieds that is cheap and would likely work on your boat.

    • Our 2008 Wakesetter cover leaks terribly, I believe it's the original cover. It seems to get more water in the boat than the amount it actually rains!

      Has anyone had success with any of the waterproof sprays? The cover is in good shape, but leaks like a sieve.
