Taylor Made Products Adjustable Boat Cover Support Pole 11991, Aluminum, 36 Inches to 64 Inches

The Taylor Made Products 11991 is an adjustable aluminum support pole built to hold a boat cover up off the deck so water does not pool and collect on top of the boat. The pole extends from 36 inches to 64 inches, so one pole covers a wide range of boat sizes and cover heights, and it breaks down into a collapsing 3-piece design that stores at just 22 inches for easy stowing when not in use. An adjuster lets the owner dial in the exact height needed for a given cover.

At the base, the pole uses a crutch tip with an EPDM bottom pad instead of a traditional crutch tip design. The EPDM material grips the deck with additional friction to keep the pole from sliding or shifting, and the base pad has a built-in swivel so the pole can be angled to match the slope of the cover rather than sitting straight up and down. The base is designed to work with any 7/8 inch diameter (bottom pole) support pole, so the existing bottom tip can be removed and this base inserted in its place. The pole itself is aluminum, which resists rust and corrosion in both saltwater and freshwater use. The set includes the support pole with its snap and crutch tip attached, ready to mount under a compatible boat cover.
