Embark on a journey of durability with our Wooden Boat Cover Frames meticulously crafted from Sapele wood. Renowned for its minimal movement compared to other woods, Sapele stands as a testament to our commitment to quality. To enhance its longevity, each frame is treated with Sikkens, a premium sealant, ensuring protection against the elements. Tailoring to your preferences, we offer alternative sealants upon request, followed by a finishing touch of meticulous oiling. We proudly steer clear of varnish, maintaining authenticity and performance.
The front of our bespoke boat frames boasts a robust 50mm thickness, ensuring steadfast support. The bottom part of the frame stands impressively at 100mm, while the top plank maintains a sturdy 50mm thickness. This meticulous design guarantees resilience, a hallmark of our commitment to excellence.
The seamless integration of the cover with our bespoke boat frames is a testament to our dedication to both functionality and aesthetics. Lifting dots or turn buttons secure the cover to the sides of the A-frame, offering ease of use. Along the sides at the bottom, sturdy press studs secure the cover to the boat, reinforced by webbing straps embracing the hull. Additional webbing straps grace the top sides of the hull, complemented by press studs, chosen for their gentleness on clothing, ensuring a snag-free experience.
Experience sophistication in every detail. Our wooden boat cover frames are meticulously fitted by drilling up from underneath, ensuring that the fittings remain discreet and invisible on the base. This commitment to elegance adds an extra layer of refinement to our already distinguished Wooden Boat Cover Frames.
Elevate your boating experience with optional extras, including raised cratch woodwork and the choice of opening wooden windows in the front. Choose between two fixed windows or a dynamic combination of two openings and two fixed windows, allowing you to personalise your Wooden Boat Cover Frame to match your unique preferences. Craft your maritime haven with precision and style.
We would recommend an annual coating of Sadolin Extra Durable clearcoat (clear satin) or similar, or at the first signs of discolouration. The beading near the window is a weak point for ice/water ingress which can discolour the wood and cause it to swell if it creeps in at this point and gets into the wood. In most cases the wood contracts again as things dry out, but on occasion may need a bit planing off.
The Carpenter who makes our woodwork suggests to remedy any blacking or discolouration, would be to sand the discoloured area back to timber, clean off with white spirit any residual oil and dust. Then re-apply a first coat of Sadolin thinned with 10% white spirt to help sink into the grain allow to completely dry then sand the complete frame with 240 grit sandpaper or finer. Then apply a further two coats giving a light sand between coats.
Discolouration can occur where lying water or ice can lift the varnish and get underneath stripping the varnish. normally occurs on the top edges and beading also accelerated by sunlight.
