Marine Fabrics & Materials
Cratch covers are exposed to the elements year-round at the bow of the boat. We use heavy-duty marine PVC or breathable acrylic canvas with welded or sewn window panels, UV-resistant thread, and heavy-duty YKK zips. All materials are chosen to handle both the wet of canal spray and the internal condensation that builds up in a lived-in cratch. We can add ventilation panels on request.
For Daventry boats mooring year-round on the Grand Union 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.

When to Order Cratch Covers in Daventry
Spring is the busiest period for cratch covers orders from across East Midlands, including Daventry, as boat owners prepare for the cruising season. However, unlike many marine suppliers, we don't operate a seasonal queue — we carry stock of all standard marine fabrics year-round, and our six-working-day turnaround applies regardless of when you order. Ordering in autumn or winter, when you've finished using the boat for the season, is often the most practical approach: the cover is ready when the boat is laid up, and your boat is protected through the full off-season on the Grand Union Canal.
If you're unsure whether your existing cratch cove on the Grand Union Canal is worth repairing or should be replaced, send photos to ryan@ukboatcovers.com for a free assessment. We'll always recommend the most cost-effective option.
