Valiant 550 Winter Cover

The winter cover for the Valiant 550 rigid inflatable boat is an essential piece of equipment to protect your boat from bad weather, UV rays, and dirt during the winter months or when it is not in use for an extended period.

Since it is easy to handle, you can also put it back on between launches during the season.

The boat cover made by SNA is crafted from a high-quality marine material, consisting of polyester coated with PVC on both sides and lightweight, 325g/m², which is half the weight of a truck tarp. The color is gray.

The cover protects the entire boat, from the front (the bow roller, which remains accessible in 95% of our covers) to the transom, excluding the engine so it can be fully tilted up. You will find covers for your outboard motor on our website.
The tarp is attached to the float's fender (also called the anti-chafing strip, which absorbs shocks rather than having the float in direct contact) by hooks connected together with a bungee cord. For balanced attachment, the bungee (a thick elastic) passes through eyelets distributed around the entire perimeter of the tarp. To prevent the stainless steel eyelets from contacting the float, we sew a PVC flap underneath the eyelets. The plastic hooks attach to the gutter located under the fender. For all attachment details, please refer to our video installation tutorial.

You will notice that installing the boat cover requires no drilling.
We use all the natural attachment points already present on your inflatable boat.

Each boat is unique, and our tarps recognize that. Our commitment to customization means you will find the perfect size and shape for your vessel.

We check the position of the console when bolted, the presence of a bimini, a roll-bar, railings...

For example, the position of the console when it is not molded must be confirmed with a measurement form that we send you after your order or that you can fill out immediately by downloading it.
Bimini and roll-bar options must be indicated by selecting the option when adding the product to your cart. There is also a measurement form to fill out so we can plan the necessary openings for the roll-bar legs.

We anticipate everything as much as possible to ensure you are fully satisfied with your purchase.

The boat cover is equipped with a vent to ensure ventilation under the cover.

All seams are sewn with a UV-resistant sail thread, which guarantees great durability for the covers.

The cover is delivered to you in a bag.

This SNA marine accessory goes beyond simple seasonal protection. It preserves the value of your investment by minimizing wear caused by the elements. Your boat stays in better condition, ready to sail. In addition to protecting your boat, our cover also offers practical benefits. Easy to handle, you can put it on between launches during the season.

Please note that this full cover must be removed for road transport.

During the navigation season, it is also useful to have console and seat covers that you put on each evening instead of using the mooring cover.

Finally, you can be reassured by the exceptional quality of our boat cover, also commonly called a mooring cover, even though it is more difficult to install when the boat is in the water. Manufactured by our company SNA in Morbihan, which has been your trusted partner in marine protection for 13 years.
