For most people, a Cockpit Tent or a Cockpit Enclosure is a necessary boat canopy for your sailboat or motorboat. This type of boat canopy offers both an extra room and adds more comfort to the boat. With a high quality Cockpit Tent or Cockpit Enclosure from Kapell & Annat, your cockpit will stay dry and warm on rainy days as the weatherproof and sturdy materials also protect against high wind speeds. Like most boat canopies, it requires sturdy frames and a stretched and well-stitched fabric to make your cockpit enclosure look good and offer good comfort. Sit under the cockpit tent or cockpit canopy and enjoy the view through the windows that we always strive to maximize in our designs. Or why not open a window and enjoy the evening sun?
