As mentioned above, several of us succesfully use tarps. I purchased mine 4 seasons back. It does not have a tear, it does not let a drop of water in the boat, and I only paid 79 bucks for it once.
Too many other unavoidable costs in boating to fork over 200-300 bucks for shrink wrap every year when I can pay next to nothing and still have access whenever I want to the boat without cutting into a shrinkwrap job. I'll take some pics in December when I pull the boat out of the water.
I've never gotten a scratch from a tarp. And if I have to replace the tarp in a few years I will still have paid less than one season of shrink wrap costs.
