Hastings Boating Community
The Hastings Harbour and Royal Military Canal near Hastings attract a wide range of boat types — from motor cruisers and yachts to RIBs and trawler-style boats. Our cockpit covers are made without reference to model specifications — we work from your existing cover as a cutting pattern, so a precise replica is possible for any hull shape, no matter how unusual or vintage.
We receive orders from Hastings boat owners who have struggled to source covers for older or uncommon boats from mainstream suppliers. Because we use the original cover as our template rather than a database of standard patterns, a bespoke copy from us fits better than any off-the-shelf alternative. Whether your boat lives on the Hastings Harbour or spends time on the Royal Military Canal, the cover we make will be cut to your boat's exact profile.
Marine Fabrics & Materials
Cockpit covers need to withstand pooled water and UV exposure while your boat is moored. We use UV-resistant marine PVC or breathable acrylic canvas, with double-sewn seams and anti-wick thread throughout. Fixings are stainless steel press studs or heavy-duty bungee cord loops, chosen to suit your boat's existing cockpit hardware. We can also fit bolt-rope edges for covers that slot into a rubbing strake channel.
For Hastings 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 Hastings Harbour.
