As the subject states... I have a 2006 AR230. My cover is on it's last legs (again) and I need to replace this year. I am after a OEM replacement... not a custom. I know the old/original cover model numbers no longer exist and I also know they do not sell them in the gray color anymore... only the charcoal. What I want to confirm is the correct model number before I order a new one. One place online has a model number of MAR-230MC-TW-CH. They state this fits AR230's for years 2007-2009. Another place online has a model number MAR-230TW-CH-18 and they state it fits 2003-2006. Both come up in searches for covers for my boat and most places have incorrect or conflicting info in their online listings so... I am hoping one of you can clarify which model number I need exactly for my boat.
:)

also they changed fabric, at least on the 07-09 models, I just bought a new '07 OEM from partsplus, I had to wait 3 months because it was on back order and the material is much thicker, feels like better quality, better snaps and ratchets also,

I could have ordered from yamahasportsplaza, they had in stock but I was worried it was the "old" material.

I just bought a cover on amazon that fits my 2005 ar230 perfectly. It’s a dark color, instead of my original light. And the cover for the ratchets is now some sort of neoprene instead of canvas.
All else is the same though. Was a little tight to instal, but I’m expecting it’ll loosen up in the sun also.
The item title was a little weird talking about an ar210 but it fits...

It seems that MAR-230TW-CH-18 to an AR230 2006 is not possible to buy anymore.

Anyone knows if it possible to fit MAR-230MC-TW-CH to a AR230 2006? (perhaps with some minor modifications?)
