Marstrand Marine Textile
We manufacture sprayhoods, harbor covers, flybridge covers, and boom covers in Gothenburg and Marstrand.
Marstrands Marintextil manufactures tailor-made and durable covers for all types of recreational boats in Gothenburg, Marstrand, and throughout Västra Götaland. We produce new sprayhoods, harbor covers, flybridge covers, and boom covers to measure—always using premium fabrics and materials adapted to the Nordic climate.
We also offer a complete awning service where we repair, wash, impregnate, replace windows, and re-sew your existing awning to give it a longer life and a perfect fit.
With extensive experience as canopy manufacturers, we combine functionality, durability, and design to provide you with a canopy that can withstand weather, wind, and many years of use.
Our chapel types
Sprayhood
A sprayhood protects the cockpit from rain, wind, and spray while improving comfort on board. We sew custom-made sprayhoods with sturdy arches, smart window solutions, and marine textiles that will last for years. You choose the fabric, color, and fasteners—we'll take care of the rest.
Harbour chapel
Harbor covers are important for protecting the entire boat when moored. Our team creates durable and easy-to-install harbor covers that provide protection from rain, bird droppings, and UV degradation. We also offer to extend the service life through impregnation and repair.
Flybridge chapel
For motorboats with flybridges, a flybridge cover is indispensable. We manufacture covers that are easy to install, follow the shape of the bow, and provide the best possible protection for electronics, cushions, and steering equipment.
Bomb shelter
Protect your mainsail from wind and weather with a durable and easy-to-use boom cover (lazy jack). We sew covers that are easy to put on and take off, tailored to your rig and boat size. The covers are available with zippers, Velcro, or lacing—always according to your preferences.
Gazebo chapel & Gazebo tent
A cockpit cover or cockpit tent is the perfect solution for those who want to extend the season on board. The cover protects against rain, wind, and evening chill—and creates extra space to socialize even when the weather is bad.
Repair, cleaning and waterproofing
Your canopy maker in Marstrand with free on-site installation
Our workshop is located in Marstrand, but we serve customers throughout the region, including Hisingen, Torslanda, Frölunda, Kungälv, Stenungsund, and the Bohuslän coast. We offer free on-site installation, so you don't have to worry about the practicalities. We will pick up, deliver, and install the canopy if desired.
How do I know if my boat cover can be repaired or needs to be replaced?
We'll help you assess the condition and what's worthwhile. Many times, a canopy service is enough instead of buying a new one. It saves money and is a better choice for the environment. By repairing and caring for what you already have, you can extend its life by several seasons. We always provide clear feedback so you know what is needed.
Specialists in Sprayhood in Gothenburg
A well-made sprayhood protects the cockpit from rain, wind and sun, and makes boating both more comfortable and safer. We sew sprayhoods in durable, UV-resistant materials and offer a complete service: from measuring and manufacturing to assembly.
Flybridge canopy - For maximum protection & style
Flybridge covers protect the upper deck of your boat from weather, dirt and wear. We manufacture chapel to flybridge boats that both fit perfectly and match the boat's design. Together, we'll find the right solution - with smart openings, ventilation panels and UV-resistant fabric.
Boom cover - Protect the sail in style
One bomb shelter, also called lazy bag, protects the mainsail when not in use. We sew boom covers with durable design and easy handling. You choose the fabric, color, opening and fit - we sew according to your measurements and needs.
Harbor canopy - Protect your boat in port
We sew and repair harbor chapel that protects the whole boat during downtime. A good harbor canopy protects against dirt, moisture, UV light and fallout. We customize the canopy to your specific dimensions - whether it's a motorboat, sailboat or luxury yacht.

Frequently asked questions about sprayhoods and boat covers
The price depends on several factors, including the type of cover (sprayhood, cockpit cover, harbor cover, etc.), boat model, complexity, fabric choice, details, and whether existing arches can be reused. All our covers are custom-made for a perfect fit.
It depends on the condition. Minor damage, worn seams, or windows can often be repaired. However, if the canopy is stretched, cracked, or severely worn, we recommend a new canopy for optimal function and durability.
Normal production time is approximately 3–8 weeks, depending on the season, type of canopy, and scope. During peak season, lead times may be slightly longer.
Yes. In many cases, it is sufficient for us to measure the boat on site or use existing arches. However, if you have an old canopy, it can be useful as a reference.
We use durable, UV-resistant canopy fabrics that are adapted for wind, rain, salt water, and temperature differences. The choice of materials is adapted to how and where the boat is used.
Good ventilation, the right fit, and the right materials are crucial. We sew breathable covers and provide advice on care, cleaning, and winter storage to reduce the risk of mold.
Yes, we manufacture boat covers for most motorboats and sailboats – both older and newer models. Everything from smaller day cruisers to larger boats.
A well-maintained, high-quality boat cover normally lasts 5–15+ years, sometimes longer, depending on use, storage, and maintenance.
Yes. We can customize the chapel with, for example:
extra window
openable sections
reinforcements
special pull chains or ventilation
Everything is customized to the boat and its intended use.
Customer reviews & experiences from boat owners across Sweden
Over the years, we have helped boat owners along the entire west coast and throughout Sweden – from Gothenburg, Marstrand, Tjörn, Orust, and Stenungsund to the rest of Bohuslän – with custom-made sprayhoods, harbor covers, boom covers, cockpit covers, and stern covers.
Many customers turn to us when their existing canopies are worn, leaking, or no longer fit properly. Through careful measurement, solid craftsmanship, and materials adapted to the Nordic climate, we create canopies that can withstand wind, UV light, rain, salt water, and prolonged exposure at sea.
We are proud that many customers return to us over the years – for repairs, reupholstering, and completely new canopy solutions – and that they often recommend our work to other boat owners. Our focus is always on fit, function, durability, and a final result that really works in practice.
