Awnings and canopies are now a must-have accessory for those who want to protect themselves from the sun without sacrificing space and airiness in the boat. There is therefore a growing demand for practical, quality ideas to improve on-board comfort, and an electric arm awning such as Opac ‘s Rolling Sun Awning is among the most innovative solutions for combining sleek, minimal design, durable materials and ease of installation and use.
Opac’s electric arm awnings are characterized by a streamlined design that allows the shading surface to be quickly extended and retracted without unnecessary bulk when not in use. Particularly suitable for the bow, cockpit or flybridge, these tents provide effective coverage while safeguarding thermal comfort and livability of outdoor areas even on the hottest days. Customization options include fabrics designed to resist UV, salt and weather, ensuring durability and brilliant color over time, and optionalLED gablelighting.
“With the Rolling Sun Awning, we wanted to create a solution that combined functionality, elegance and, above all, maximum integration with the design of the yacht,” explains Luca Sacco, president and CEO of Opac. “It is a product designed to concretely improve the experience on board, offering shade, comfort and atmosphere without compromising the style and lines of the boat. The fact that it has been chosen by three different shipyards confirms the validity of our ‘custom’ approach for all our products and the market’s appreciation for tailor-made solutions like ours.”
Three boats that have recently chosen Opac’s solution for onboard shade are Luxia Yacht’s 375 GTS, the Custom Line Navetta 42, and the Riva 66 Ribelle.
An additional advantage of Rolling Sun Awning is the modularity of many models, with the possibility of customizing sizes, colors and materials. In addition, they are available with built-in motorization to operate the awnings with a simple touch, ideal for those looking for modern and intuitive solutions, always accompanied by the possibility of using manual closure if needed.
Like every Opac signature solution, the Rolling Sun Awning is also entirely designed and manufactured in Italy, and is ideal for both long-distance boaters and those who like to have a day or weekend on the boat.
