covers

Our covers start with the finest fabric available in the yachting world. Sunbrella® is 100% solution-dyed acrylic fabric. Sunbrella withstands sun, wind and rain while remaining beautiful for years. The secret to its long lasting colour is found in the solution-dying process which locks colours into the acrylic fibres, so they can't wash out or fade.			**2 day old "Jodi"**
The water repellent process applied in the finishing process of Sunbrella® was found effective for years at sea aboard our yacht. Slightly less strenuous testing of cria covers aboard our young alpacas has yet to uncover a wet cria. Sunbrella® fabrics, if kept clean, will not mildew. An inherent characteristic of acrylic fibre is that it will not support the growth of mildew, as a natural fibre will. Mildew will however grow on any surface that is dirty, so to keep your Sunbrella® fabric from mildewing you must keep your fabric clean. As added protection for the young cria, we line our covers with a polar fleece material. Buckles and straps are also made of marine grade nylon, to ensure years of trouble free use without the annoyance of rusting buckles.
