we let our pontoon sit on the lake bed, too. My suggestion would be to get a plain ole tarp and put that over the existing custom cover. Depending on how big your boat is, you may have to search around in Home Depot, Academy, Harbor Freight, somewhere like that to find a big enough tarp. We tie it down taut with a combination of bungie cords and thin rope. Inside, we use the prop up poles that came with it plus a couple of supplementary poles to make sure there aren't any sagging spots in the cover where water can collect. Unless you spend some dough on another custom cover that is rain proof, IMO it's hard to beat a humble tarp for the price.
