Boat Canopy Sun Shade

Tension Suspension Blind

There are times when you want the sea breeze, but can do without the sun beating down on you. The boat cover seating area is ideal for the breeze, but leaves little protection from the sun when required. Even with the big rear window closed, it offers little more protection due to the standard large window and can act like a greenhouse. Our boat canopy blind blocks the majority of the sun’s rays coming in through the rear window, yet still allows a degree of air flow through the gaps between it and the boat’s cover. The side doors can then remain open to let the breeze pass through the canopy. It is an effective trade-off when you want some breeze and some shade. Many boats have blinds or curtains for all the other windows, but nothing for this well used seating area.

This shade is both easy to fit and use. It is composed of high quality parts for long-life usage. The blind uses a Cord Lock system that is a very robust type of mechanism, perfectly suited for this application. There is no wooden baton used for the attachment of the blind, as it works by ratchet tension applied to the Cord Lock brackets. These brackets are suspended between the boat’s canopy frame. When the blind needs to come down, you simply reverse the installation process and pack away.
