It's not expensive (other than replacement every two years), but in some ways 
a simple, heavy duty polytarp may be best, draped over the mast and tied down 
with trucker's hitches.  First, it's lightweight, making it much, much easier 
to pull on and off the boat.  Second, its rectangular shape allows the ends 
to be open, which provides plenty of ventilation.  I tie it down at the bow, 
stern, and amidships.  I think my tarp is 12'x16'.  The silver, heavy duty tarps 
last about twice as long as the light duty blue ones, here in Tennessee.  
Works for me!

Nice job, good idea.  

Tod, I am looking for the best storage cover for an M-15 I will soon have, I
hope.  This would be for storage outside in all weather as I can not keep it
at home.  Do you know of websites where I might start looking for such an
item?   Damn the cost.......Thanks, Larry in Sacramento.
