Marine Fabrics & Materials
Marine acrylic is the most popular choice for full canopies — breathable, UV-stable, and available in a wide range of colours. For maximum waterproofing, heavy-duty PVC (400 g/m²) is the better option. We use double-sewn seams and anti-wick thread on all canopies to prevent water ingress at stitch lines. Clear panels are cut from marine-grade flexible PVC that resists UV yellowing for years longer than standard clear vinyl.
For Folkestone boats in coastal or tidal locations, we recommend 400 g/m² marine PVC over acrylic canvas — PVC handles salt spray and stronger coastal UV without the accelerated deterioration that affects lighter fabrics in exposed positions on the Folkestone Harbour.

Year-Round Cover for Folkestone Boats
The Folkestone Harbour near Folkestone is used year-round by boat owners who moor between the active cruising season and leave their boats on coastal moorings through the quieter months. A cover that was adequate for summer use often fails during Kent's wet and cold months — seams split, windows cloud and crack, and zips corrode when a cover is left under load for extended periods.
Our boat canopies are built specifically for the conditions your boat will face on the Folkestone Harbour. We use double-sewn seams with anti-wick thread, UV-stable fabrics that won't bleach or become brittle over successive seasons, and heavy-duty YKK marine zips that resist corrosion. If your cruising takes you between the Folkestone Harbour and Royal Military Canal, your cover is also tested against a wider range of conditions — an argument for choosing the heavier PVC option, which handles both protected and exposed stretches without compromise.
