    Hey Phoenix Owners...

    Please tell me I'm not the only one who cannot get their cover to fit in that little storage bag it came in. It's a really nice cover, but holy crap I'll never get it to fold up that small again. If you possess the mystical skills required, how about a quick YouTube video to help out those cursed with lesser skills (me). Thanks.

    I bought a plastic tote for mine. That bag is a joke.

    Mine went back in just fine. You have to lay it out and fold into the centre a few times then roll from end to front. Piece of cake

    Put it on the floor. Fold it into 1/4ths. Roll it from the back to the front as tight as possible. Put it in the bag! Not a problem.

    The bag that came with the boat, or was suppose to. Call your dealer, they probably have lots of extra bags in their store/dealership. Mine rolls up just fine to fit in the bag.

    The bag is for the posts that hold the cover up on your boat. Collapse the tall posts, wrap up the straps & stick them in the bag

    I received a smaller bag for the cover poles etc. but no way the cover is fitting in it. Plastic tote with 1” ventilation holes drilled in it works perfectly. Even if I had the proper storage bag, I’m not laying the cover on the ground and rolling it up to later put it back on my boat. If I picked up any sand or small rock and it scratched up the gel coat I would be mad at myself to say the least.

    I think I finally figured it out. I can fold it right 3 out of 4 times now. I even took pictures as I unfolded it. Id be glad to walk you thru it.

    I made a video (my first) on how I fold and store my boat cover in the bag that came with it. As I say in the video, If I had spent a few more minutes straightening and smoothing the cover it would have went into the bag easier. I hope this helps a few folks. Below is the link to YouTube.

    Hey Ruger61, thanks for the video! Also, that's a great wrap on your rig.
