NOTICE
DO NOT use the weather covers for outdoor
winter storage. The weight of the snow or
heavy rain can cause severe damage to the
material or top structure. Refer to O-3 Winter
Storage in this manual for more information.
Weather covers for the cockpit areas are available on
all F series models. Four Winns covers are designed
and intended to provide protection of the cockpit seat-
ing areas.
Four Winns utilizes acrylic-type material for all its
covers. All F series canvas except mooring covers
consist of 100% acrylic material and is color matched
to the boat. The mooring covers are made of

acrylic and come in dark tan (mica) only.
NOTICE
Remove snaps one at a time to prevent
damage. DO NOT rip off or pull the weather
cover as a whole; acrylic material may tear at
snaps.
Never use any form of open flame cooking
device while under, in any area fully enclosed,
or near any acrylic weather cover. This material
is flammable.
A.   Bimini Top (Aft/Main)
During the manufacture of the weather covers, the
smallest possible needle and highest quality UV
stabilized, bonded polyester thread is used in the
stitching.
A bimini top is standard on the F series models. This
style is a “freestanding” top and supported only by the
bow assembly. Refer to Figures O-1 & O-2.
To install:
The weather cover is water repellant but not water
proof. During a hard rain, you may notice a light mist
permeating through a weather cover. This is normal.
If the seams leak, they can be sprayed with Scotch-
guard™ or similar water repellent or a seam sealing
compound can be applied. Keep objects from contact-
ing the inside of the cover. Leakage may occur at
point of contact.

After use, the top canvas should be rolled up into the
boot (if supplied) and secured.
NOTICE
NEVER fold or store a wet weather cover. This
can lead to mildew or shrinkage. Roll rather
than fold the enclosure curtains. Sharp folds
increase the chance of cracking the clear vinyl.
