Considering FW trailer cover for 2008 H200. If anyone out there has one, I need to know if the bimini will fold down when the trailer cover is on. Any help would be appreciated.

Based on the "New 2008 Travel Cover Thread" a ways down the thread list I'm guessing no. Looking at the one picture. Although maybe you can fold the bimini down first and then put on the cover.

I don't have one so I'm only venturing a guess.

Just take the bimini off -- they are quick release on the boat. Stow it under the cover somewhere in the boat and reinstall when you want to.

I just found out more info on the trailer cover. They have one for wakeboard towers, and another one for H200's without the towers. I ordered one up. Will post more when I get it.

Just got my new boat and trailer cover. The cover is awesome. It fits like a glove. It has one strap that bands with a set of ratchet clamps. It has 2 vents in it. When I trailer, the cover stays snug, with no slipping. Thanks to the vents, it doesn't flap at all when I am going down the road. Glad I bought it. It fits with the bimini either up or down (sits above the cover, but has openings for the bimini legs)

I got one for my new 210 but it has the wakeboard tower (not arch) so I can't help you with the bimini part.
It is a beautiful cover in appearance fit and construction - material is tough as he!!. It is light and very quick and easy to install / remove - even around a towered boat. Maybe easier than stretching and snapping canvas.
Very nice use of ratcheting strap, vents and velcro. The quick release clips are cleverly placed so as not to roll underneath the cover and rub through your gel. Even the ratchet assembly and the zippered pocket it fits into has velcro straps to keep it from flapping around and damaging something. Nice touch.
Seriously, the fit is unbelievable - its like it was not made that type of boat but rather your boat in particular.
My only gripe is the same as was with a very similar cover on my SeaDoo and that is at highway speeds it works well but if you run through a very windy area the sides tend to pull up over gunwales and start flapping (and no, ratcheting to the point of almost ripping does not help much). I don't know what the solution is beyond finding a better support system over the open bow where it tends to "vacuum wrap" into. This is where all the material seems to go that makes it creep up the sides until the wind gets under it. This seems to be the same issue with just about every trailering cover I have seen used on an open boat. I would hate to put a strap under the hull for the risk of chafing the gel on long hauls. At least this year :wink:.
It is going to make a beautiful mooring (keeping my canvas nice and new) and short haul cover though - kept everything above the rub spotless and survived the accidental ATV trail portion of my 14-15 hr journey home.
