Winter shade upgrade

Get a retractable sunshade system installed during the off-season and be ready to go in the spring!

Wish you had more shade on your boat last summer? Tired of baking in the sun because your cockpit forward bow lacks adequate sun protection? 

Now is the perfect time to plan a winter upgrade project with an aftermarket SureShade installation so you can get ready for a shady boating season next year!

With SureShade, adding shade is a definite upgrade to your boat (not just a quick fix for a shade). Our patented telescoping sunshade systems are the only American-made retractable sunshades that top boat builders like Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, Grady-White, Cruisers (and many more boat brands…) are choosing to add to their new boat lines.

Our aftermarket install options provide you with the same quality shade systems offered by top selling builders as a factory-installed option.

Adding a SureShade sunshade system is a quality shade upgrade that truly adds value to your boat – becoming an extension of a hardtop or overhead structure. There’s no more tedious handling of canvas and you’ll have more choice when it comes to shade on your boat by simply extending or retracting canvas when needed.

With dealer or DIY install options, along with three types of shade systems, getting your shade upgrade has never been easier.

Of course, if you prefer more assistance with installing SureShade MTF or RTX, we are happy to coordinate installation with your local boat dealer’s service department.

Your local marina service department can work on your boat during the off-season months so that you have no downtime when boating season starts in the spring.

The SureShade ATF automated shade is a dealer or factory installed product due to the complexity of the shade installation.
