Narrowboat Pram Covers

Custom Narrowboat Pram Covers

A pram cover is a fabric hood over a narrowboat's stern steering or rear deck area. It provides shelter, and many designs fold away on an existing frame. The folding position and clearance depend on the boat's layout and retained frame.

We supply replacement fabric for suitable existing pram-hood frames. Send Ryan photos of your fitted cover, frame, windows and fixing points for assessment. A suitable old cover can be used as a template through our postal copy service. We do not supply or install new supporting frames.

Agree the Pattern, Fabric and Fittings

Discuss acrylic or PVC according to the cover design, use, pattern and fittings. Window size, access panels and fixing positions must suit your retained frame and boat. If you have no usable old cover, ask Ryan to assess the available pattern and measurements before ordering.

No VAT is added. Replacement covers require an individual quote. General boat-cover repairs start from £70.

Narrowboat pram-cover replacement fabric requires an individual quote for the existing stern hood, windows and fixing layout. No VAT is added.
