Is your canvas worn out?
Extend its lifespan, and sail more responsibly.
Don’t replace everything.
Replace only the canvas.
Your boat protections (Biminitop, Summertop, Sprayhood, Cockpit enclosure, sun awning, …) are essential elements for your navigation, both for your safety, your comfort and your boat’s style. It dresses your cockpit elegantly and allows you to extend your living space on board. It is the ideal shelter from spring evenings and beautiful summer days.
But after several years of weathering, the
sun rays, sea spray, some fibres lose their colours, the windows tarnish. Weather and wind are also responsible for tears and mould. And even if you have carefully maintained your canvas, nevertheless it can remain stained and lose its shine as time goes by. By renewing your outdoor equipment, you modernise your boats looks whilst making your navigation safer, as well as acting more responsibly.
Repairing, re-canvasing your exterior protections: an ecological act and a definite economic advantage.
Worn-out canvas, sound structure: replacing the canvas is a good alternative to replacing the whole structure
Over time, boat cover canvases can fade, become brittle, lose waterproofing, or develop cloudy patches on the windows. However, this does not always mean that the entire structure needs to be replaced.
Before considering a new purchase, it is essential to check the condition of the structure: arches, attachments, fit, overall tension, stability, and proper function. If the structure is sound, replacing the canvas will restore your cover to full functionality while preserving the parts that are still in good working order.
This follows a simple principle: restore what can be restored, throw away less, extend the equipment’s lifespan, and continue to enjoy your boat in comfort and safety.
