Stroud Boating Community
The Thames & Severn Canal and River Frome near Stroud attract a wide range of boat types — from traditional narrowboats and wide-beams to day boats and hire-fleet cruisers. 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 Stroud 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 Thames & Severn Canal or spends time on the River Frome, 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 Stroud boats mooring year-round on the Thames & Severn Canal, the choice between PVC and acrylic usually comes down to whether breathability (acrylic) or maximum waterproofing (PVC) is the priority — Ryan is happy to advise based on your specific mooring and how frequently you use the boat.
