Specifications for a “marine grade” vinyl upholstery fabric:

  • UV Resistance - Your boat seats are going to take a beating from the sun. Other than a bimini top, there’s really no protection from consistent UV exposure. Marine grade vinyl is designed to be UV resistant and withstand regular exposure to sunlight and UV elements.
  • Moisture Resistance - When you’re on the water, there’s no escaping exposure to moisture. Marine grade vinyl is designed to be less permeable to water, preventing moisture from getting into fabrics causing mold and mildew damage. Vinyls such as Naugahyde are especially good at preventing water damage.
