About Hardy Boat Covers

Hardy Marine has been building seaworthy motor cruisers in Norfolk since the 1960s. The Hardy range spans from the compact Hardy 17 Fisher through to the Hardy 27, with the Hardy 20 Pilot and Hardy 18 Navigator being among the most recognisable models on both coastal waters and UK inland waterways. Hardy cruisers are renowned for their solid construction and practical layouts — qualities that make well-preserved examples still highly sought after for weekend and holiday cruising. When original covers wear out or become unavailable, owners turn to us for a bespoke made-to-measure replacement that fits their exact model and specification.

How long does it take to make a Hardy cover?

How do I order a replacement cover for my Hardy?

You have two options. You can measure your boat yourself following our online measurement guide, then send us the dimensions by email or through the contact form. Alternatively, use our postal copy service — send us your old worn cover and we make an exact replacement, then post the new cover back to you.

Our Hardy boat covers are made to the specific dimensions of each model using marine-grade acrylic canvas, with all seams double-stitched for long-term durability. We hold patterns for several Hardy models and can produce covers for any variant in the range by working from your measurements or a postal copy of your worn cover. Covers are fitted with the appropriate fastening system for the model — press-studs or a zip for canopies, bungee cord for tonneau covers — and dispatched by tracked courier to anywhere in the UK. The process from measurement to despatch typically takes around 6 working days.

Ordering a replacement Hardy cover is straightforward. Contact us with your model name and we will check whether we hold a pattern for it. If a pattern is on file, we will confirm the key measurements we need from you. If we do not hold a pattern, you can either measure your boat yourself using our online measurement guide and send us the dimensions by email, or post us your old worn cover and we will use it as a cutting template for an exact replacement. All covers are made to order in our UK workshop using marine-grade acrylic canvas and dispatched by tracked delivery direct to your door. We aim to complete every order within 6 working days of receiving your measurements or old cover, and we deliver to any address in the UK at no extra charge.
