I have a Parker 1801 and this will be my first winter storing the boat in the backyard. I purchased a boat cover rather than having the boat shrink wrapped... I intend to keep the cover on the boat during the fishing season to keep leaves out of my boat.
I am curious if any of you prepare your covered boat for a northeast winter any special way? I plan on rigging some 2x4's from the bow to the top of the console and some more from the top of the console back to the stern quarters to support the cover in case of a lot of snow (even though this winter is starting out pretty mild). I was even thinking of putting a tarp over my cover, just for added protection.
Any ideas or suggestions anyone else has would be appreciated!
