I've searched the site and see some good ideas, but haven't seen anything for a 21se. Not really interested in pulling the trigger on a Fisher canvas cover. My Father and I are quite good with our hands, so I was thinking something with PVC and wood. We do get snow, so that is a big concern. thanks
 
I refuse to think of Fall or Winter at this point, but want to answer your post. I've used a fiber reinforced green tarp for several winters now and have been happy. I use a 20x30 tarp(fits my larger style t-top) and bungi cord to trailer. The whole thing fits over the T-top and makes a nice "tent" over the whole boat. Easy to undo a bungi and get under to work on too in the winter. I use a small plastic trash can over the GPS mushroom under the tarp. This also acts like a point to keep the snow sliding off the t-top. Additionally, I use the dock lines run from each corner of the t-top down to the nearest cleat this give a little support to the tarp to avoid sags in the tarp that could allow snow build up. A section of rope run off the t-top to the bow cleat really works to keep the tarp free of sags. Same for some rope run off the back of the t-top to the 2 stern eyelets. Use a small tarp over the engine(have full engine bracket) and wrap off with one bungi around the outboard. I place 2 small pieces of foam noodle cut in half under the bungi on the engine, to let any humidity out. The tarp is about $50 bucks, bungis, small tarp, dock lines. I can not stand the idea of shrink wrap at 400-500 bucks every year.
