A new concept in automobile and equipment covering that addresses several major inefficiencies in current cover applications (those covers that contact the surface of the stored item or serve as portable shelters). In its preferred embodiment, the instant invention includes a series of arched poles that support a weatherproof cover and facilitate quick set-up and full retraction(similar to the concept used on many convertible car tops). The shape of the shelter will likely be in the form of a half-dome or other similar shape depending on application. The design will also allow for the weight of the vehicle or equipment stored to anchor the shelter when closed. The instant invention significantly improves the current level of "car cover" protection because it does not contact the surface of the auto or other stored equipment thus it eliminates scratches, mildewing and wind-abrasion, and it fully retracts for ease of use.
