Taylor Made Products Adjustable Boat Cover Support Pole, 36 to 64 Inches, Aluminum, Part 11992
The Taylor Made Products Super Support Pole, part number 11992, is an adjustable aluminum pole that holds up the center of a boat cover so rain and debris cannot pool on top of it. Pooled water adds weight and strain to a cover and can lead to premature wear, sagging, and tears, so a properly placed support pole helps extend the life of the cover it is used with. This pole telescopes to fit boats needing support from 36 inches up to 64 inches in height, making it suitable for a wide range of boat sizes.
The pole functions as three support poles in one: it comes with a male canvas snap, a grommet tip, and a plain end cap, so it can be configured to attach directly to a cover's snap fitting, sit under a grommet, or simply stand free with a non-marring end cap. Each end of the pole is designed to be non-marring, protecting the boat's gelcoat, upholstery, or cover fabric from scuffs during use. Built from aluminum, the pole is lightweight yet sturdy enough to bear the load of a draped cover while resisting corrosion in a marine environment.
