    Options: Ultra Premium Steering wheel and boat cover

    Is the Ultra Premium steering wheel option worth the additional cost? I don't know how much it costs and I've never seen one to compare it to the standard wheel.

    Are most people ordering a factory cover with their boats or is the money better spent by ordering a custom cover from one of the aftermarket manufacturers?

    The stock cover is terrific and can be used for towing. I would not get an aftermarket. I love the cover.

    Knowing boat prices these days, it is likely a $700 steering wheel you can buy off of Ebay for $100 and bolt on yourself. I like the stock steering wheel, and cannot imagine it being better, just prettier.

      Steering wheel not worth it in my opinion. There's barely a difference. But it's chump change in the overall cost of these things.

        What about a boat cover for slip duty.

        I mean a cover that covers the boat including the swim platform, and from the tower in up position to the bottom of the boat.

        I am waiting for your recommandation. Already called many places locally, but none have the template for a G21 and do not want to bother to make one even if they get the template.

            My dealer uses Dallas Canvas and they make over the tower/platform covers for all the Nautiques. I have one for my 210 and love. You cannot tow with it.

              Thanks guys. It sounds like the stock cover is gonna be the way to go. The verdict is still out on the Ultra Premium Steering Wheel.

                    I like the premium wheel quite a lot more..... it's not much more $$. It was worth it to me. I think it was $180 msrp, so less than $150 after discount.

                      Just looked it up and your correct $180 MSRP and $115 is dealer cost.

                        We like our premium steering wheel. At $150 or less with the discount, its probably one of the easier decisions you could make.

                            I think sewlong makes a tower to waterline cover for nautique.
