UV Cover Construction
The panels of the UV cover material, in this case gray Sunbrella, are cut in varying width, tapering from the clue to the head. This ensures that the sail is covered fully but there is no excess weight on the sail.

With the sail picked out under tension the panels are applied with special double adhesive tape. The sail is put in tension as it would be when it is on your boat, which makes for a very smooth finished product.

Note the in floor sewing machines, without these it would very hard to do large sails efficiently.

We use an overcast stitch all of the seams so the fabric will not fray.

The corners are finished expertly. Depending on the size of the sail, we use either a tubular polyester webbing, or dyneema webbing.

We even refinish the end of the luff tape.

Now we have a finished UV Cover!

Then we fold up the sail, and it is ready to be shipped back to you.
