    Power pole covers

    Looking to get a set of covers for my blades and I would like some opinions on which to buy, Russel Marine covers or the Tuff Skinz?

    I've got Rod Warriors for my Blades and I've towed from Northern Kentucky to Okeechobee and back twice as well as trips around Kentucky. Last trip to Florida was a couple of weeks ago and it snowed all the way to Chattanooga. They stay in place and still look brand new. They do recommend using a protectant like 303 to keep them from sun fading. I've treated mine, and again, they still look new.

    Last time I looked, RMP covers are neoprene, not the same material as Tuff Skinz. I have the Tuff Skinz. Neoprene fits snug but will not last.

    Power Poles are a neoprene. Going on 5 years with mine still look new.. so do not agree with that statement.

    I purchased a pair of the Russell Marine covers for my Blades which did not fit as they were not long enough for the Blades with the new bracket design. They said they are working on cover that will fit the new bracket style. Personally I really liked them for the price point.

    Russel Marine are the only ones that will fit over their Power Pole Anchor Light kit. Both products are top notch.

    When will someone make a cover that is usable when you have the drift paddle rubber attachments on? Should be a velcro way to hold them on.
