 Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Since it appears Gator Tail does not sell one, does anyone know where I can find a very strong waterproof cover for a 37hp EFI Gator Tail? Thanks

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
I just use an outboard cover. Works great. Think for a 50hp

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Since when does GT not sell covers?! I bought my soft cover from them when I got my new LU. Although I usually use a plastic barrel, cut to fit, when it's parked in the yard. I use the soft cover when I'm at the camp.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
The Mudbuddy cover looks nice. Don't know how it would hold up though.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Just picked up one for my Prodrive from Walmart. It's a size 4 cover rated for 50hp to 115hp. Paid $17

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
I also use an outboard cover. Mine sits on the side of the house (sucks). I'm building a lean too here shortly for it. Cover lasted me about 2.5yrs. Time to replace

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Thanks for the help... I sold my 35hp Hyper but didn't think it would fit the new Gator Tail 37EFI that I just ordered. I felt the control box on the handle wouldn't fit over the Mudbuddy 100mph cover, but seems as though other people say it does. Think I will wait and try the Mudbuddy cover and if that doesn't work I will purchase the outboard cover.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
There's a lady up here that makes these for the Gatortail dealer for the control box. They're around $30.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
I just had the handle tube diameter enlarged to ensure a gt handle box would fit in it.
I don't know of another cover that is waterproof,covers the handle, and you can trailer it down the highway without it flapping apart.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Those are really nice, but do they fit over an aftermarket exhaust and the reverse cover

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
Yessir. I just fold my handle up then throw the cover over motor and handle. I throw a bungee across the bottom to make sure it doesn't fly off on the road since the handle isn't in the sleeve.

 Re: Waterproof cover for 37hp EFI
I ordered a 50-115 HP cover for my motor and it fits well. After staring at the handle for a while, I took the nylon sleeve off of a folding camp chair and slipped it over the handle. Fit perfectly and sinches down tightly on the open end.

Redneck genius maybe. I'm a northerner but my family is from Tennessee so I guess it qualifies. lol
