ABSTRACT:
A portable, safety hull cover for a marine vessel or the like which may be quickly deployed from a vessel which has sustained hull damage that destroys the water-tight integrity of the hull which could cause the vessel to flood and ultimately sink. The saftety cover is a flexible, waterproof sheet of material sized and shaped for attachably conforming to the vessel bow, sides and keel, with the cover being readily connected to the bow by an attaching noose and deployed against the hull along the outside bottom of the vessel. The safety cover when deployed will prevent water from being received into the boat through a damaged hull section as long as the boat or vessel is moving, such as would be the case with the vessel trying to reach a safe harbor. The device has an auxiliary use to form an enclosure around the boat for cleaning the hull.
