On SavvyBoater.com we carry both Carver and Westland boat covers. Customers often ask what the major differences are between the two manufacturers.

Carver has been in business for over 30 years and makes all their boat covers in the USA. Their selection ranges from custom fit, styled-to-fit, flex-fit, pontoon covers, specialty covers, and personal watercraft covers.

The custom fit option is made specifically for the make and year of your particular boat, giving it a "glove-like" fit. It has great aerodynamics which makes it ideal for travel, mooring, and storage.

The styled-to-fit covers are a value option that are less costly than the custom fit and are designed to fit popular hull styles and boat models.

Flex-fit boat covers are the most cost-effective option, available in 6 sizes that fit most 14-22 foot boats.

Westland has been in business for nearly 30 years, but does not manufacture their boat covers in the USA. Their cover selection includes exact fit, select fit, personal watercraft, and outboard motor hoods.

Exact fit boat covers are made for a specific year, make, and model of a boat, like Carver's custom fit option.

While, select fit boat covers are made based on set center-line length and beam width dimensions. They come in one foot length increments, so the fit is looser than the exact fit boat covers.

Another difference between Carver and Westland is the amount of fabric options, colors, and warranties available on our website.
