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.
