MTF manual shade

See how these boat brands met a boater’s need for shade with a better canvas solution by adding a custom retractable shade option to their boat line

Boaters are always seeking innovative options that will provide added convenience or improved functionality on their boat. And when it comes to boat shade, a traditional canvas system with fixed poles and cumbersome bimini boots just doesn’t do it for them.

Whether you are a boat builder looking to incorporate a custom shade system that complements your boat design, or a boat dealer offering aftermarket canvas options for clients, a retractable sunshade system from SureShade is the perfect shade solution to differentiate your boat lines.

Here are some examples of how SureShade created a custom boat shade solution for boaters while helping these boat brands stand out even more from the competition.
