A retainer clip is for attaching a cover to a track member on a marine vessel. The channel has opposing proximal and distal sidewalls, a closed inner end, and an open outer end. The retainer clip has an elongated body having a proximal leg configured for attachment to the cover and an opposite distal leg configured for insertion into the channel. Tensioning the proximal leg in a first tension direction causes the distal leg to pivot in the channel in a first pivot direction and engage with the distal sidewall so as to retain the retainer clip in the channel. Tensioning the proximal leg in a second direction causes the distal leg to pivot in the channel in an opposite, second pivot direction and disengage from the distal sidewall so as to allow the retainer clip to be removed from the channel.
