  7. Your Boat Needs Shade

Boats are great for spending time on the water and enjoying the sunshine, but too much sun exposure can be harmful to both you and your boat. If you’re looking for an easy and effective way to add shade to your boat, look no further than the Wakeshade. This universal shade extension is the perfect solution for anyone who wants to enjoy their time on the water without being exposed to the sun’s harmful rays.

Benefits of Wakeshade

WakeshadeThere are several benefits to adding a Wakeshade to your boat, including:

  • Protection from the Sun: One of the most significant benefits of adding shade to your boat is protection from the harmful effects of the sun. The sun’s UV rays can cause damage to your skin, as well as fading and deterioration of materials on your boat. 
  • Comfort: Adding shade to your boat provides a cooler and more comfortable environment for you and your passengers. This is especially important during the hot summer months when the sun can make it difficult to enjoy time on the water.
  • Increased Visibility: When the sun is shining directly on your boat, it can be difficult to see clearly, making it harder to navigate safely. Shade helps to reduce glare and improve visibility, making it easier to see and navigate your boat.

Protection for Equipment: Shade can also protect your electronic equipment, such as GPS systems, radios, and fish finders, from the sun’s rays. This helps to prolong the lifespan of these items and keeps them in good working condition.
