ABSTRACT:
A new and improved support apparatus is provided for a flexible sheet boat cover which includes a first resilient support assembly, a telescopic extensible and retractable pole assembly connected to the first resilient support assembly, and a second resilient support assembly connected to the pole assembly. The first resilient support assembly is adapted to be supported by a portion of a boat body when the pole assembly is in an extended condition. The second resilient support assembly is adapted to be supported by a top portion of a boat windshield when the pole assembly is in an extended condition. The pole assembly is adapted to support a flexible sheet boat cover when the pole assembly is in an extended condition and supported by the first resilient support assembly and the second resilient support assembly. The first resilient support assembly and the second resilient support assembly include resilient pads. The first resilient support assembly may include a pair of resilient pad assemblies adapted to fit onto tops of converging boat railings. A crossbar assembly is connected to the resilient pad assemblies, and a connector assembly is provided for connecting the crossbar assembly to the pole assembly.
