Please describe the project specifications

We received a request from the Owner an Offshore 80' to update their current shade solution on the upper and aft decks to simplify and prevent sagging. We upgraded to a commercial shade fabric and increased the purchase to 2:1. Our designer Introduced setbacks and setbacks and scalloping, to compensate for the specific fabric to provide maximum coverage when fully tensioned.

What is unique or complex about the project?

We needed to incorporate a commercial design for recreational use. Both shade solutions were larger than (our) normal. We designed a new tensioning system with 2:1 purchase and incorporated it into the existing pole system.
