Retractable sun shade - Matta0413 - 12-27-2022
Has anyone added a retractable awning to their Tiara? I have a 31 Open, I added the Atlantic Tower skyline top 2 years ago. I am looking at the SureShade products. Does anyone have any experience with these? Wondering what the best way to install the shade would be.
Thanks

The SureShades are great products. From what I’ve heard, it’s best to have an installer do it because they can be sensitive to any angles that cause binding.
I looked into putting one on my 4000, but a fully electric one was $12k. Mechanical one was about half that. OR, I had a piece of canvas cut/bound that attaches to some snaps on the underside of my hardtop and ties to two stainless poles in rod holders that was $120 all in.

Thanks MC. I already have a canvas with two poles. Was looking for something with a better look.
