I have a 2000 H240 with Four Winns "Mooring Cover" (Light Brown coated canvas I think)
Looks like a trailer cover to me, as it covers everything down to below the rub rail, but not meant for trailering. The quality of the cover is very nice, and the boat is quite dry and protected from the sun. I think it is nearly air tight, so I am considering adding a vent to let out the Florida heat. This was the original cover from 2000, but had almost never been used by the PO. I purchased 6 weeks ago, and am using the mooring cover as my primary cover when boat is on trailer in my yard. I will not be trailering with it unless just going to the gas station or very local and under 35mph.
Keep in mind that I am talking about a cover made in 2000, so I don't know if the new ones are made the same. I know the "Trailering Cover" is a different material. For curiosity, I have inquired with a local dealer about the price of a FW trailering cover, but have not heard back. Aftermarket Fitted covers are available from $300 to $700, or at the bottom end, a walmart generic cover may be around $140.
