Steve M Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 You want the grill to be ventilated to some extent so condensation doesn't become an issue with swinging temps. It can become waterlogged over extended periods if things are tightened down too much. Don't ask me how I know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zich6 Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 I highly recommend the KK cover. The sunbrella material is tops in the boating industry and is well worth the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
