Overview

The Attwood Marine 10704-5 is an adjustable boat cover support pole that raises the center of the cover so water can run off instead of pooling. It telescopes from 28 to 48 inches, uses a 1 inch diameter anodized aluminum pole, and locks at the chosen height with a twist.

Rubber tips at both ends help it sit against the cover and the deck or sole without creating a hard contact point. This is the kind of support pole commonly used under a mooring or storage cover when you need extra lift in the cockpit or another low spot where rainwater tends to collect.

Key features

• Adjusts from 28 to 48 inches to match the gap between the boat and the cover at the support point
• 1 inch diameter anodized aluminum pole for a lighter setup that holds up well in a damp marine environment
• Twist-lock telescoping adjustment for quick height changes without tools
• Rubber tips at both ends to reduce chafe and avoid hard contact against the cover or deck surface
• 3-in-1 tip setup so the same pole can work with different cover attachment styles
• Raises the cover center to help water drain off and reduce sagging from standing rainwater

Compatibility and fit

Fit comes down to two checks: the vertical distance from the support surface to the underside of the cover, and the way your cover accepts a center support pole. This pole works where that height falls within the 28 to 48 inch adjustment range.

The interchangeable tip setup is useful when replacing an older support pole or when your cover uses a reinforced center point with a specific attachment style. For the cleanest fit, check the support location on the cover before ordering and confirm that a center support pole is part of your cover setup.

Use on board

This pole makes the most sense for boats that stay covered at the dock, on the trailer, or in offseason storage. It is a practical replacement for a missing support pole and a straightforward way to add lift under a cover that sags in one spot.
