    Super Support Fiberglass Bow

    The fiberglass bow support is excellent for keeping my boat cover in place. I would buy this product again and again.

    Placed into the slat holders purchased at the same time. The flimsy construction literally requier being tied to the 2 adjacent fiber glass stays to remain upright. This product needs to be at least twice the thickness in order to remain upright on its own-- as is it is useless.

      It does exactly what I needed it to do. It supports my boat cover so rain or snow wont puddle, or pile up on it, causing the cover to sink down in the boat.

            Comments about Dock Edge Super Support 8' Fiberglass Bow:

            The product was easy to install, however, the weight of water and even the strength of the wind can move it under the boat cover, rendering it ineffective. To fix this problem, I attached a snap in the middle the product and another to my strap (running front to back of boat) holding the two poles, eliminating any movement. Works very well at getting rid of water now.

                • Q:

                  For the 8' bow, are the 2 sections 4 feet long or 8 feet long each? In other words, to create a bow to fit a boat with a 10' beam, would we need one or two 8' bows (2 sections with connector)?

                    A:

                    This item comes as two 4 foot sections to make 8 feet. You would need to make sure of your inside dimension. We do not have any that are 10 feet.

                    A:

                    You install slat sockets (sold separately) and each end of the bow slides into the slat sockets, across the width of the boat. The bows are longer than the width of the boat therefore form an arch to keep the boat cover from sagging.
