Classic Accessories Boat Cover Support Pole

Arrived just in time for some rain. I will have to get another one but my throttle arm on my motor props the rear up a little. If you have a boat that doesn’t have a podium or something to help prop the cover up 1 prop will not be enough. It’s plastic and the ends of the tubes fall out. It’s difficult to keep it all together but for 10 bucks I’m not complaining.

UPDATE 12 OCT 2020: This my be a good product if your boat is inside a garage and the cover is there to keep the dust off, buy using this to hold your boat cover up to have the rain run off is a waste of your money. The first time it rained (with the cover securely in place and strapped down) the pole sections bend and fell out of place allowing the rain water to collect in pockets. I went to Lowes and puchased 3" schedule 40 PVC pipe, toilet flanges for bases screwed to 12x12 squares of 3/4" plywood, elbows and 'T's to made a ridge pole and this holds very securely. Far better than the 4 sets of these flimsy pole sets. If I hadn't already tossed the boxes and the bags they were shipped in, I'd return them for refund.ORIGINAL REVIEW: You can't buy pvc material and make this for less money. Great product for the money but seem to be too flimsy. I cut some one inch electrical plastic conduit to slide inside and that strengthened the support considerably.

This item is just a plastic pole that comes in pieces. I thought it may be a bit better quality for the price... It is really think and light... This item does not seem to be worth the price paid but at the same time it is as described... I did use it but it just keeps falling over because it literally weighs nothing... have not attached any straps to try to hold it in place... Cant see the quality until you get it... Just my opinion...

I bought 2 to support my cover on my 19 footer. While they don't "Adjust" you add 12" sections (they are the pole) I found 12" too short for my front support and 24" way to long. I used a pipe cutter to cut a 3" section and added it in for 15" It fits perfect.Because of the inserts that connect the sections the minimum length for a section is 2" but you can shorten another section and make it any length you want. I break them down and store each support in a zip-lock bag, but you could glue pole together with ABS glue if storage space isn't an issue. I found the base and domed top to be the right size to keep the support in place and not damage the cover. $15 easy to setup what more can you ask for. The top has 3 tie points which I didn't need but the idea is you can tie a strap (Not included) to another high point and make a tent of sorts. and reduce the number of support poles you need.I think if you did that you would need to tie off the back side of the support to keep from pulling it over.

not very sturdy there should be 2 one does not do the trick

This support pole is by far the worst designed, cheapest design, and complete waste of time and effort on the market. The pole is not sturdy, and you will need to tape every section if you even bother putting it under your cover. This wont even stand up on it's own, and when it does fall over it completely comes apart because the connectors are so loosely connected. The plastic design allows it to easily slip which in turn makes the pole bend and eventually break. I am not even sure I will return this on the chance they send me another one. I am almost embarrassed for this company for producing such a flawed product, but I am severely embarrassed to have purchased such a cheap stand. Buy a nice one, you wont regret it!

This product is horrible don’t waste your time, I thought maybe people were not using it right maybe overloading it, it’s 5 piece of flimsy plastic not schedule 40 1 inch pipe it’s thin and will bend, rain shine or snow. It’s been 3 weeks and it’s already bowed, I also used a few straps to stabilize it and it’s still bending, so save your money and get something stronger. Seriously this was a total waste of time and money.

When I bought the boat the seller had a PVC frame to support the boat cover. This is so much better. I found the poles to lean and flex under any pressure, but, I placed the pole inside PVC pipe & secured at top and bottom with a sheet metal screw. I purchased 3/4 in nylon strapping and plastic buckles with slides  Blue Elf 10 PCS 3/4"(19mm) Black Side Release Whistle Buckles for Paracord Bracelets Strap with Free Cable Organizer  I used my sewing machine to make the loop ends, attach the buckles, and loop through the slots in the mushrooms. The cover that came with the boat had numerous stains from puddling. I purchased a new Classic Accessories cover which included one support pole.  Classic Accessories StormPro Heavy-Duty Boat Cover With Support Pole For Bass Boats, Fits 16' - 18.5' L x 98" W

Plástico muy delgado y los tramos no embonan de manera fija así que al ponerle un poco de tensión se empieza a doblar hacia los lados y termina rompiéndose, no lo volveré a comprar

I purchased these to hold up a quite expensive boat cover for my pontoon boat - we secured through the top holes well across to the railing of the pontoons as even under pressure from the cover they kept falling apart and falling over leaving the cover to sag and fill up with water, ice and snow - eventually sometime during the winter the entire stand came apart indicating that the sections don't fit together well and with the genius design of a spike in the bottom section I ended up with a hole through the my cover - the product is weak and flimsy - don't do what I did and not build or purchase the proper frame for your cover - you will potentially end up with a hole in a 700 dollar boat cover

Excellent items the only fault is that they are too light so kept falling over when pulling cover on so had to make a good base out of wood to screw them onto, but I would certainly buy again

Works Great

Very weak plastic
