ATF-SG “Silent Glide” boat shade is SureShade’s next-generation automated retractable sunshade system with silent glide technology. ATF-SG uses the same patented telescoping framework of the current ATF electric shade – it is simply much quieter.

Key benefits include:

• Silent shade operation – 85% less noise
• 80% power requirement reduction
• Same look & feel – seamless OEM transition at factory or upgrade for existing clients

Available now for factory installations, SureShade’s Silent Glide shade is the only marine-grade, telescoping shade system proudly made in the U.S. and market-proven by top builders.

Meeting the design challenge of a quieter shade head on, SureShade made modifications to the internal drive system of their flagship ATF Automated Boat Shade product so that extending or retracting their electric shade is now virtually unnoticeable to the human ear.

The design modifications come with other significant improvements as well.

New ATF-SG systems operate with 80% power requirement reduction - consisting of a single power source which draws 3 AMPS @ 12VDC (single 5AMP fuse) rather than drawing from two power sources that combine at 14 AMPS @ 12VDC (single 15AMP fuse & another 5AMP Fuse) with original system. The new ATF-SG system also has the ability to operate at 10.5VDC.

ATF-SG has the same exact look and feel of the current ATF shade with comparable performance and functionality. The transition to the new Silent Glide Shade is seamless for builders and can be supplied for current boat models that offer the shade without any impact to current installation, engineering or new product development efforts.

Existing boat models equipped with SureShade ATF automated shade can easily be upgraded to the new ATF-SG silent glide. Upgrades will require the purchase of a new controller, wiring harness and both actuators. Installation is a direct fit with no other modifications needed.

For boat models not previously factory-equipped, SureShade ATF-SG Silent Glide shade is also available as an aftermarket installation.

SureShade M3™ Automated Mega Shade is an electrical shade with a 3 stage extension (as opposed to a two-phase system on the ATF) enabling longer and wider canvas extension. Using the same patented retractable shade system as our SureShade ATF, the M3 features a three-stage telescopic framework design with a maximum shade extension of 10 feet (3.048m).

The self-supported framework provides shade without the use of inhibiting support poles in the back of the boat to interfere with boating activities such as fishing, boarding and docking. Versatile mounting options include surface-mount or fully integrated installations, along with arched roller designs that seamlessly extend shade as a natural extension of a boat.

The SureShade M3 automated tele-frame shade utilizes a patented telescoping framework to automatically extend or retract canvas at the touch of a button. The shade is electrically wired to a switch (typically at the helm) that initiates extension or retraction.

Designed specifically for the marine environment, this electric power-driven shade system can be installed with components fully-integrated within a hardtop or bridge.

SureShade M3 is ideal for boats over 60 feet (18m) or for shading larger areas of a boat (such as a large cockpit or bow).

SureShade MTX™ Pull-Out Boat Shade is a patented retractable shade system that operates with an easy pull-out and push-in mechanism and is the ideal shade solution for aft or bow shade on boats under 45 feet.

SureShade MTX is a stainless steel, self-supported manual pull-out shade that has the look and feel of the SureShade ATF electric shade, but manual in operation.

Available in 6FT (MTX-2) and 9FT (MTX-3) extension lengths, MTX is the ideal shade solution to meet both the popular and increasing demand for bow shade as well as the continued demand for obstruction and hassle-free shade aft deck.

MTX is can be installed on any boat with sufficient overhead structure  – such as a hardtop, arch, T-top or tower.

With minimal components and no wiring necessary, the MTX shade system can be easily installed by the average boater. A versatile universal clamp design allows the shade to be mounted aft, forward or both (using 2 units) on numerous boat designs.

SureShade RTX™ Pull-Out Boat Shade is a patented retractable shade system that operates with an easy pull-out and push-in mechanism.

Built with our telescoping technology, SureShade RTX provides boaters with a lightweight, low-cost option for shade within seconds and can be installed on T-Top, hardtop, arch or tower.

SureShade RTX Pull-Out Shade operates with pull-out/push-in mechanism and is an ideal shade solution for boats under 27 feet lacking adequate shade coverage.

Utilizing our flagship telescoping tubular framework, boaters can simply and swiftly pull-out and push back the shade in a matter of seconds. There is no physical handling of canvas as the canvas automatically rolls up on a torsion-spring roller. A necessary and unprecedented feature of this system is its locking device that prevents the shade from self-retracting from vibration or wind when fully extended, even while underway.

The ease of use and self-supported framework provides boaters quick access to shade without interfering with watersport activities.

Designed specifically for the marine environment, this manual shade system can be installed on any boat with sufficient overhead structure  – such as a hardtop, arch, T-top or tower.

SureShade MTF Manual Shade operated with a simple hand lever and is an ideal shade solution for boats under 35 feet lacking adequate shade coverage.

SureShade MTF features a lightweight aluminum framework that can be easily installed for more boat shade forward, aft or both.

SureShade developed the manual version at the request of marine trade professionals and boaters who were looking for a lighter weight and lower-cost version of the shade system for smaller boats (under 35’ or 10.6 m) – without compromising the unique self-supported features of the automated system. The result is a groundbreaking sunshade system that is suitable for virtually any style boat and any size budget.

Designed specifically for the marine environment, this manual shade system can be installed on any boat or yacht with sufficient overhead structure (such as a hardtop, arch, tower or bridge).
