A Natural Extension of Your Boat Design
SureShade’s flexible design philosophy and controlled manufacturing approach gives clients the ultimate choice when integrating the SureShade system with any new or existing boat design.
We work closely with the new product development and engineering teams of boat builders on placement designs that best harmonize with the boat’s overall appeal. All SureShade products are designed to serve as a natural extension of the boat and ensure that installation at the factory or dealer level is relatively easy.
With such distinctive features as self-supported framework, push-button or hand-operated extension and retraction, and versatile mounting options for virtually any boat, SureShade products enhance the boating experience and give boat builders and dealers a value-added option for their clients.
Design Advantages
SureShade is unmatched in design, functionality and value.
Cambered cross components requires no support poles – even at 10 ft. (3 m) widths and 10 ft. (3 m) extensions
Framework enables weight to be more evenly distributed throughout the hardtop and not concentrated in just aft end of the hardtop
Framework weight distributed across more longitudinal area (forward/aft) enabling mounting locations that provide more stability
Ability to conform to boat curvature allows for more flexibility in boat design as well as enhancing aesthetics
Cambered cross members, including roller, can be integrated in lower cavity space for better integration
Price & Quality – SureShade is a proven lower cost, higher quality product that sells
