WeatherMax 80 From Safety Components Protects The Investments Of Champion Wakeboarders

Skier's Choice, the official towboat of the World Wakeboard Association, is dedicated to customer satisfaction. To protect the investments of champion and everyday wakeboarders and waterskiers, the company chooses WeatherMax 80 from Safety Components for mooring covers for their entire line of Supra and Moomba towboats.

Fabricated by Great Lakes Boat Top Co. in Vonore, Tennessee, mooring covers made of WeatherMax 80 combine strength and beauty to shield Supra and Moomba from the elements in high style. Great Lakes design engineer Gary Lewelling says, "WeatherMax is less abrasive, and is treated on both sides for superior performance and quality. Safety Components is always improving its products to please their customers."

Made from solution-dyed SaturaMax yarns with a patented HydroMax finish, the mooring covers are waterproof yet breathable, eliminating the growth of mildew, a serious problem with coated fabrics. Without the sagging or wetting problems associated with acrylics, WeatherMax 80 maintains its fit and performance and is guaranteed to be fade-resistant for a minimum of five years.

Accon Marine Stud Mount Cleats Combine Both Form And Function


A boat's beauty should be enhanced by its hardware. Accon Marine's 6", 8" and 10" Pop-Up cleats combine both form and function. They are now available in stud mount versions.

Without any visible screw holes, these cleats give any boat a sleek look. Convenient and attractive, they pop up and are ready to use with the press of a button. When no longer needed, a boater simply pushes the cleats back down and they lock in the flush position. They are out of sight and out of the way. When in the up position, they function exactly like conventional cleats.

Constructed from marine grade 316 stainless steel, these high-quality cleats can withstand harsh marine conditions. Easy to install, they come with a backing plate that also serves as their cut-out template.
