    East side of Indy- Dan's boat covers.
    Right on Highway 40, south side of road. Hancock county.
    idk if he has a website, probably Facebook, but I'm not on FB.

    I can go by monday & get his #.
    If you know where Washington Sq is, just keep going east maybe 2-3 miles, on the right side.

    The Boat Place on Hwy 36 near Racoon Lake used to make very nice covers.

    I have one from Parker near Summitville, Indiana. Sherm uses his shop if someone doesn't want to order one from BCB. He made one for my Caracal. Its 4 years old now and is still like new. I've towed my boat to Georgia, Kentucky and around Indiana of course, it seems pretty sturdy and it doesn't scratch the gel coat. If I remember right, it cost me a bit over $600.

    Really appreciate all of the responses fellas! Ranger called me back today with their info. I know the Ranger cover is top quality but the more I think about it the more I really want to support a local biz. At the moment, I am leaning towards Coverall down in Martinsville but will continue to research others.
