Custom Boat Upholstery & Marine Canvas in Palm Beach, FL
Palm Beach is home to one of Florida’s most distinguished collections of vessels, from high-performance sport boats to full-size mega yachts. The quality expectations here are unambiguous, and Canvas Designers is built to meet them. We pattern every product from your vessel’s precise measurements, fabricate entirely in-house, and use only marine-grade materials selected for durability in Florida’s coastal climate. Whether the project is a set of custom cockpit cushions, a full flybridge refit, or a proprietary EZ2CY® enclosure system, nothing leaves our facility unfinished or approximated.
Serving Palm Beach’s Marine Community with Precision and Experience Since 1985
Our facility at 1500 Australian Avenue, Riviera Beach, FL 33404 sits minutes from Palm Beach Island and the Palm Beach Marina. Canvas Designers’ team of 30+ marine fabrication specialists manages canvas, upholstery, rigid enclosures, metalwork, and custom accessories; all under one roof, with no work outsourced to third-party vendors.
Palm Beach yacht owners and managers expect vendors who understand the difference between high-specification marine work and standard production. Canvas Designers has built that reputation over four decades. We are the original developers and sole producers of EZ2CY® impact-modified acrylic enclosures, a proprietary system with no equivalent available from any competitor. Every enclosure we build is patterned directly from the vessel and fabricated by our in-house team.

Custom Fender Hooks for Palm Beach Yachts
On Palm Beach Island, the details on a yacht matter. Canvas Designers fabricates custom fender hooks for yacht owners and captains who want purpose-built dock accessories rather than off-the-shelf hardware. We build in leather, 316L stainless steel, and specialty materials, configuring every set to the specific vessel’s rail geometry and the owner’s material preference.
In-House Metal Fabrication for Palm Beach Marine Projects
Canvas Designers’ in-house metal fabrication department produces marine-grade stainless steel and aluminum components for projects that require structural or mounting hardware alongside canvas and upholstery work. Shade poles, frame extensions, boarding hardware, anchor fairleads, and custom mounting systems are fabricated in our Riviera Beach shop, on the same timeline as the rest of the project.
Upholstery, Interiors & Comfort Systems for Palm Beach Vessels
Palm Beach vessels require interior upholstery that reflects the overall quality standard of the boat. Canvas Designers’ interior upholstery team works on cockpit seating, helm consoles, cabin headliners, galley trim, and full interior overhauls using Sunbrella®, Ultraleather®, and other premium marine fabrics. We also produce stateroom and berth mattresses cut to exact vessel dimensions, and offer custom marine quilting for interior upholstery panels that call for premium stitch patterns and elevated texture.

Custom Canvas Covers Engineered for Palm Beach’s Climate
The combination of low-latitude UV intensity, salt-laden air off theAtlantic, and a storm season that runs from June through November makes canvasquality a serious practical concern for Palm Beach vessel owners. A cover sizedfrom a catalog template and built from general-purpose fabric won’t performhere, the conditions will expose every shortcut within a season or two.
For Palm Beach owners who also want on-water shade coverage, our biminitop and shade system options extend protection to crew and guests without compromising sightlinesor airflow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of marine canvas work does Canvas Designersdo for Palm Beach vessels?
We fabricate custom boat covers, EZ2CY® acrylic enclosures, cockpit enclosures, T-top and hardtop covers, Sunfly shade systems, and bimini tops for Palm Beach vessels of all types. Every product is patterned from your vessel’s actual measurements rather than sized from a standard template, ensuring precise fit and long-term performance in Florida’s coastal climate.
How do you ensure fitment quality for Palm Beach yachts with non-standard layouts?
Every project begins with direct vessel measurement. Our team patterns canvas, upholstery, and enclosure components from your boat’s actual geometry, accommodating non-standard deck layouts, custom deck hardware, and vessel-specific dimensions that generic products cannot address. This is standard practice for every project we take on, regardless of vessel size.
Can Canvas Designers handle a complete interior refit for a Palm Beach motor yacht?
Yes. Our interior upholstery division manages full-scope interior projects including saloon seating, cabin headliners, helm station finishing, galley upholstery, and crew accommodation work. We have the material inventory and production scale to handle large-format interior scopes on motoryachts, sportfish, and custom superyacht platforms.
What makes EZ2CY® enclosures a better choice thanvinyl for a Palm Beach yacht?
EZ2CY® impact-modified acrylic panels outperform vinyl across every key metric relevant to Palm Beach’s conditions: UV blockage (98% vs approximately 71% for vinyl), optical clarity retention over time, scratch resistance, and structural rigidity in wind. Vinyl degrades like clouding, yellowing, and scratching within a few Florida seasons. EZ2CY® maintains performance and appearance significantly longer. Canvas Designers is the exclusive fabricator.
Do you fabricate fender hooks for super yachts and mega yachts in Palm Beach?
Yes. We build custom fender hooks for vessels of all sizes, including large motoryachts and superyachts with non-standard bulwark or rail profiles. Every set is fabricated in-house to your vessel’s specific dimensions and finished in your chosen material like leather, stainless steel, or specialty options.
How does Canvas Designers coordinate canvas and metal fabrication for the same Palm Beach project?
Our in-house metal fabrication shop produces structural components including frames, shade poles, mounting hardware on the same project schedule as our canvas and upholstery work. There are no outside vendors to coordinate, no timeline dependencies on third-party shops. For Palm Beach projects involving both canvas and metalwork, this integration means faster completion and tighter fitment between components.
Are custom marine mattresses available for Palm Beach yacht staterooms?
Yes. We produce custom mattresses cut to the precise dimensions of your vessel’s staterooms, VIP cabins, and crew berths, including non-rectangular shapes common in production and custom yacht designs. Mattresses are built with marine-grade foam and fabric systems suited for the moisture levels and temperature ranges typical aboard Florida yachts.
What is the typical project timeline for canvas or upholstery work on a Palm Beach vessel?
Timelines depend on project scope and current production scheduling. Individual canvas covers or single upholstery components are typically completed in one to two weeks. Full interior refits, EZ2CY® enclosure builds, or comprehensive canvas-and-upholstery packages generally run three to six weeks. We provide a specific timeline during the initial consultation and keep clients informed throughout production.
