You can try the West Marine link and see if they have what you want, or find a Marine Canvas shop and have a custom one made in the color you want.

Recorded after playing in the rain for a few hours :] My new guitar! It's looking rather lustrious in this light. I couldnt be happier with it ...

I have a 17' runabout. I've always used canvas, but it leaks like crazy..the boat is always wet inside. I've also heard that it should "breath".

Here is a site with some good boat cover. I know Ameri-brand is also good

Trailer is 17 ft with 15 ft tri hull on on it. When putting boat in often the back wheels of my ford ranger are in water. Couple times got stuck wheels spinning on slime covered ramps. Wanted to know if its worth extending the tongue of my trailer rather then go through expense of buying a cheap 4x4 truck.
It won't fit in my garage if I extend length of trailer so I have to install a swing tongue on it.

I'm concerned about the balance of weight on trailer if I add on to it.

It will work just fine.As for balancing the trailer this is not hard either.To accomplish this all you need to do is move the Axel on the trailer.You want about 100lb.of tongue weight so you will need to move your Axel forward.I hope this helps.

It is a Creighton "Gull". It looks like a camper however it is actually a mini houseboat that is built on a trailer, ie: the trailer stays with it all the time. It is 17' overall but the cabin portion is about 15'. It sleeps 4, has a closet for a port-a-potty, a gas stove burner, a sink. a slide open sunroof, a dining table which converts to a bed, a bunk bed which converts to a couch... It was licensed in Indiana when I bought it as a "House-car". The title had been lost so I retitled it. I have state issued boat #'s for the front, and a trailer license plate for the back. I've had it in the water and it is certainly sea-worthy. I have the original brochure for it too! There was a similar craft made called a "Car-a-Boat", (also in England). It is made of fiberglas on the bottom half, and tin covered wood on the upper half. It appears to be one of the few left in existence, and most defineatly the only one in the states. I want to find it's value for insurance and possible sale of it.

The easiest way to find the value of anything is to look around and see what other comparable items are selling for. In fact that is how the marine surveyor will do it. He will ask you what you think it is worth, what you paid for it, and compare that value to what other boats of that type and condition are selling for. You can do the same thing yourself.

If you wish to get a a second opinion of the boat's condition a professional marine surveyor is well worth the money.
