If your are like me and too cheap to play for a Yamaha cover this is a easy alternative. I bought a 22-24’ cover off of Amazon($109). Then I marked and cut slits where the tower bolts on and reinforced the cuts so they wouldn’t rip and added button snaps from Walmart(maybe $5–10). I added stainless safety pins to the bungee string that goes around the outside to clip together. All in all easy mod for $120.
