I have $750 cover from Yamaha that was custom made for my 24 Limited. It is the best cover ever. It has ratchet tight adjustments on both sides, support not only wind but driving at 80 mph. It is 3 years old and no sign of wear or incredibly fading. It is black. But it is heavy. The equivalent for Class A 30 ft would have to be 5 times larger so I assume it is not practical. What I have I must be able to do alone. My mfg is saying that a cover is my own risk as to what it may do the surface.

My plan.

By next Summer, I want a UV tarp that can cover at least the Top 6 feet on the west side of my coach? I may have engineer something around a tarp like this...

I am not worried about sun on North, East or South side of my coach. North & South side will not get direct sunlight, and the East side will only get few hours of morning sun which is not as intense.

I will also wax like crazy on section by sections as my own leisure.
