Abstract
A cover for protecting the interior of a boat from the surrounding environment. The cover has first and second vertical supports connected to a dock. A horizontal member is connected with the first and second vertical supports to form a frame. First and second brackets are located on the first and second vertical supports. The first and second brackets have arms attached thereto that extend from the dock toward the water. A canopy is attached to the arms. A winch has cables connected to the first and second brackets to move the canopy with respect to the boat from a first position where flaps surround that portion of the boat out of the water, to a second position which allows unhampered ingress and egress between the boat and dock.
