There's hardly a better option than a Bimini top or custom enclosure to add a distinct look that sets your boat apart. The benefits of covers go beyond the cosmetic; a well-made enclosure also provides lasting protection for your boat.
For a custom enclosure that will make your cruiser pop while keeping it pristine for years, turn to Lakeside Marine Canvas. Since 1997, we've provided custom cover fabrication for nearly every kind of cruiser. We offer computer-aided designs and travel throughout the Southeast US to meet our customers at their locations for design consultations.

What type of fabric do they recommend for your boat?
Here at Lakeside we use whatever fabric the customer wants. We find that Sunbrella, TopNotch, and WeatherMax will meet the majority of our customer’s request.
Do they use UV rated zippers?
In most cases Lakeside uses #10 LenZip Zippers with locking metal pulls.
What type of thread do they use?
We use SolarFix PTFE thread which puts in writing that their thread is guaranteed to outlast any fabric it is sewn into.
What type of vinyl do they recommend?
20/20 Crystal Clear made by the makers of Strataglass is our vinyl of choice.
What is their warranty on craftsmanship and materials?
Material manufacture warranties will vary. Lakeside will take each warranty issue on case by case conditions.
When making a new Bimini top, what type of frame and hardware will they be using?
At Lakeside we use only .065 stainless steel tubing with stainless steel fitting. Each Bimini will include a matching boot for storage.
Do they think outside the box to create the best fabrication per your request?
Because we use only top quality materials, we know your project will be built to last. We have in-house welding for the larger than normal project. Our shop is large enough to handle building party tops from scratch using our engineered drawings or covering an existing top with new material.
We attach a single curtain to an aft canopy boat top that extends across the vessel's back. Windows are available.
These are attractive canvas coverings designed to match your boat's colors while protecting your anchor.
A Bimini top is a canvas-covered, freestanding boat top with a collapsible metal frame. Bimini tops usually cover from the windshield and extend to the aft of the vessel, or somewhere in between. Lakeside designed what we call the Hoopback Top that extends from the Arch as far back as you want covered. They protect you and your interior from sun and wind exposure.
Ideal for boats with walk-through windshields, bow covers protect seating areas. They snap into fixtures around the bow and extend from windshield all the way to the front of the boat.

Visor sunshades can be canvas or mesh covers that you can snap to your cruiser’s windshield that extend over your the windows to help reduce the heat and protect your dash from the UV rays.
Our visor windows are clear windows, in single or multiple counts, that we attach to Bimini tops, hard tops, or the front of radar arches. These help further surround the cockpit and are used with side curtains.
