NOT JUST ‘The Boat Cover Company’ - We are proud to be a part of

the New Zealand Maritime scene.chair.jpg


Its been a busy season for The Boat Cover Company. We’ve been lucky to have worked on the following boats this season; Surprise, Shenandoah, Salperton IV, Aquila, Adele, Kokomo. Sassafras, Arctic P, Seljm, Rapture, Eos, Nirvana and all the local companies and boat owners who continue to support us.
Thank you! We appreciate your business.

It has been great to see boats and crew that we have dealt with before and to be working with new crews too.

NOT JUST THE BOAT COVER CO… in fact the name may be a bit misleading as only 25% of our work consists of covers! wingchair.jpg

  • a shark catching chute for an aquarium in Kuala Lumpur.
  • a custom made dog life jacket for a TV advertisement
  • a set of cowskin retro chairs
  • a bag to carry and protect a Superyacht Award
  • quilted bedspreads to fit custom bed crotch straps!! don’t ask!

WINTER..

Winter is all about covering up and maintenance of covers. Covers
will protect your paintwork, stainless and timber from the harsh
effects of our climate and prolong the life of your boat or
exterior furniture.

We offer a cover maintenance service consisting of repairs,
restitching, cleaning and waterproofing. This service will
prolong the working life and effectiveness of your covers no
matter how old they may be.


DID YOU KNOW?

Standard foam in exterior upholstery acts like a sponge soaking
up water and never completely dries out, especially when they
have been soaked in salt water.

We recommend using reticulated foam for all your exterior
upholstery as it acts like a filter allowing the water to drain
through it without compromising on the comfort factor.

We can replace the foam in your existing squabs or request
reticulated foam when ordering new exterior upholstery.

Silicon Spray used on your zips may shorten their life by drying
out the plastic.

Use BEESWAX, such as a beeswax candle, instead to improve glide
and provide protection from marine conditions.

 

MARINA FENDERS

  • High impact fixed fenders.
  • Will not mark your boat in anyway.
  • Very hardwearing.
  • Excellent shock absorbency and prompt memory recovery.
  • Can be custom built for specific marina berths and corners.
  • We can personalise your fenders with your boat name, marina name and number.
  • They can be easily wiped clean.
  • 100% New Zealand made.
Exterior grade cushions and bean bags…Range ‘in-store’ or custom made.


COVER IT!

We can design a cover to fit anything – just see the list of jobs
done already this year. And we love a challenge!

Don’t pay for storage of your exterior furniture, bbq’s or sports
equipment, kayaks or whatever. Leave it in situ with a quality
cover to protect it from the elements.
