Patent CA-2818008-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KELLY MICHAEL
IPC: B63B17/02
Filed: 2013-06-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to a retractable shade/rain protective canopy cover, attached to the side of a sailboat boom that can easily be extended to an open position and quickly retracted to a compact rolled position when not needed. The apparatus can either be attached to one side of the boom or be attached as a pair to each side of the boom to provide an even larger area for sun/rain protection over a sailboat cockpit area. It can be positioned anywhere along the boom length including cantilevering the structure beyond the end of the boom to provide the maximum sun/rain protection desired. The apparatus can be attached to any size boom with the use of screws or clamps wrapped around the boom if the preference is not to have permanent holes in the boom structure. An internal tension spring mechanism keeps the fabric taut when in the extended position and pulls the fabric back to a rolled retracted position. The result is a practical sun/shade device than can be extended while sailing or stationary at anchor and can be quickly retracted to a rolled position when not needed.
