Can you tow with snap cover or will it damage it?

I tow with the snap on bow and cockpit cover all the time. I would not tow above 45 mph without it. Make sure you remove poles before towing.

Did you mean to say you would not tow with it above 45? Going to be on interstate doing 70 or better.

I tow with the snap covers. My only issue has been having a snap come undone and flapping in the wind. It made scratches in the gel coat. They will buff out but I don't know how bad it would be if I was going faster or longer trip. I tow 40 miles at 60mph

Tow at highway speeds with snap on cover all the time.

No. I would not tow the boat above 45 mph Without a cover on. If towing on the interstate WITHOUT a cover you stand a good chance of losing seats, carpet and anything not fastened down. I have towed short distance at 45 with no problems uncovered, but would never tow interstate without one. I even keep my spare shipping cover in truck just in case my bow and cockpit cover tears.
