In reality I have a 12 month plan to have a garage built for it. So only need it to last a year.
Check out this thread for a first class garage.

You don't know how close to home that thread hits.........Like there may be a part two to that thread in the next year.

You're going to fit in nicely here! See how subtlety we hijacked Jeff's cover thread?

I have a ZTR and lots to mow too. Only every now and then I stretch its capacity out to the max...

That is not a hijack. That ZTR is in the water, and clearly a watercraft. I think it needs a cover. Looking for advice on a cover for it.

See, no hijack here.

You got that sucker in some serious dodo with that. kudos my friend!

I have the full Cover from Cobalt but I would like to protect it over the winter. Would it be ok to place it on the boat and place a cheep walmart cover over that. Maybe over kill but to Cobalt cover is great to keep tight for drainage water and snow.

That should work dogspots. Unless it's a really dry climate where you are you might think about placing some sort of humidity absorber in there in to keep mildew away, but you should be fine.

Or you could just use a power washer on it next spring and clean it off. It' ll look fresh and brand new when it dries.

Do not power wash your cobalt cover. Mfg states this for surlast material. Be careful of the advice you get on here 😂😂🤣🤣
