how easy is it to use as a mooring cover while in the water

Not very easy to use as an everyday quick cover. You have to have just the right support system underneath or water pools in it. It's great for winter storage but I'm actually looking for a smaller tarp for quick on/off through the summer. Hope this helps!

We found the cover to be the best quality of many others we have used through the years. It is easy to use and of ample size to cover our 21' pontoon boat easily.

It's a little hard to string the rope through the bottom loops while the boats in the water, I added some aluminum hooks on the boat just above the water to string the provided tie downs through. I could never make it tight enough without those added loops

I'm sure you could fasten something to the edges of the pool and the cover (similar to how the cover would attach to the cover reel). I don't think there is much of a need for that however. A little bit of water always seems to come on top of the cover to weigh it down on top of the "suction" the cover and water create together. It's a great cover for the price, even compared to more expensive covers. Good luck

You can tie a rope on one of the pillows if you are stationary. I wouldn't tow it behind the boat if it is moving.

Very easy. For huge patio umbrella covers you can put the cover on a broom handle and slip it on. Short people like me will need a 3 step stool to get the cover high enough to slip on.

There isn't anything to attach the cover to. You could put Velcro on the edge of a tarp and the sides of the pool, maybe. You could just lay a tarp on top, but the wind would blow it off.

The foam should work fine. You may want to look into marine grade vinyl for the covers as boat cushions tend to have excessive sun and (salt) water exposure.

Yes it's pretty easy to move. It might be more difficult if you fill the bottom with water or sand

After a few minutes to get familiarized with using a buoyancy vest, I found it easy to adjust for diving and for floating. One wrinkle. The vest, unless you get a size that is a snug fit, will tend to ride up at times. I solved this by wrapping a simple webbing strap/side-release buckle belt I whipped up and secured the vest by weaving the belt through the vest's side straps. Overall, the vest greatly enhanced and extended my snorkeling sessions. Definitely recommended.

Depends on the wind/&/or current. In calm waters 15Lb would be the smallest I'd trust. Work up from there depending on conditions.

IMHO it would be a bit heavy and sag onto the water compared to the plastic type netting. But if you pull it really tight and stake it all around it might work.

Hello, thank you for your interest. This cover can be used while transporting. We suggest you strap down the cover with extra cable or rope when transporting on a vehicle. This helps to prevent damage in high winds. Hope this helps!Thank you,Formosa Covers

Possibly, it is designed to be strapped to the trailer for fastening the cover over the boat and the strap material arrived in a single roll to be cut to length. You may want to search for a mooring cover for your particular boat make first.

Yes very easy, just hold line reel and turn hand to loosen then take off and put on other side.

...it has a slight tendency to 'slide around a bit' in a strong wind, but it seems surface tension always kept it on the pool. If you wanted to, I suppose you could install a few grommets, and tie it off at the corners of the pool. It is a pretty decent cover, and it does work well, by the way....

nope, pretty simple. has 2 clamps that you just twist down until it's tight. only takes about one minute to put on your boat.

I like the product and you have the ability to anchor it down very well but for what you are wanting to do I would not. I suggest a Carolina cover. They are built heavier and stronger, but of coarse much more expensive.

This is a charcoal grey carpet, with some stretch, making it suitable for interior vehicle installations. My application was to cover an irregular shaped subwoofer enclosure, and it stretched well around the contours and was held with spray adhesive. I would not personnaly recommend on a boat in areas exposed to a lot of water.
