Another one of our vans has had a fresh new look, now wrapped in our new Jeckells blue branding!

A huge thank you to our good friends at for another fantastic job. The new blue really stands out and keeps the Jeckells fleet looking smart and recognisable while we’re out and about across Norfolk, Suffolk and beyond.

Keep an eye out for us on the road! 👀🚐

This Full Flybridge Enclosure, recently made and fitted at Horning Pleasurecraft, transforms the flybridge into a fantastic additional room — giving far more protection from the wind and weather while still retaining excellent visibility and that open, spacious feel.

Made from MBS Fabrics Acrylic Canvas, with large clear window panels, the enclosure is designed to complement the boat while creating a practical and comfortable space that can be enjoyed for much more of the boating season.

Whether you’re looking to extend your time on the water, create extra sheltered seating, or simply get more use from your flybridge, a bespoke enclosure can make a huge difference.

A fresh new look for this boat’s saloon, with a complete set of seating professionally re-covered in Cover-Tex Faux Suede, finished with contrasting Navy piping.

From tired or dated seating to a completely refreshed interior, our team can produce made-to-measure marine upholstery to suit your boat.

Thinking about refreshing your boat’s interior? Get in touch with our team to discuss what we can do for you!

Another substantial cover project completed by our Jeckells Covermakers team.

This full overall workshop cover was manufactured for Sunbury Otter Marine, using heavy-duty 900gsm PVC to create a large, fully covered working area around the boat.

Designed to provide excellent protection from the elements while allowing work to continue underneath, the structure gives the boatyard a practical, sheltered environment for maintenance, restoration and other projects - whatever the British weather throws at them!

A great example of the larger bespoke covers our team can manufacture, with each cover made to suit the individual application.

⛵ Bespoke Cockpit Cover – Horning Pleasurecraft

Another recent job completed by our Jeckells Covermakers team — a new bespoke cockpit cover for a yacht at Horning Pleasurecraft.

Manufactured in Commodore Navy Acrylic Canvas, the cover has been made to give a smart, close-fitting finish while providing excellent protection to the cockpit when the yacht isn’t in use.

All of our covers are made to measure, with each one designed around the individual boat to achieve the best possible fit and finish.

If your boat could do with a new cockpit cover, canopy, tonneau or other bespoke canvas work, get in touch with our Covermakers team.

We recently had the pleasure of producing some upholstery work for a local company near our chandlery!

Jet Adventures provides brilliant sightseeing trips such as Seal Watching at Scroby Sands and historic harbour tours (such as Lowestoft!)

One of our Team members, Sonia, also participated in a Murder Mystery experience aboard Jet Adventures, accompanied by a familiar doggy face from our Chandlery!
Sonia thoroughly enjoyed it and encourages others to give it a go!

The work we produced was on the seating aboard this vessel; we used rust-dyed acrylic for a waterproof, weather-resistant finish

We hope everyone has a great week!

We had the pleasure of making and fitting these new seats for a RIB in North Norfolk. The customer chose Charcoal Silvertex with orange piping, which gives a really smart finish and works brilliantly with the boat's colour scheme.

All the seating was upholstered in our workshop and then fitted on-site, giving the boat a fresh new look ready for the season ahead.

Many thanks to for supplying the Silvertex material.

If your boat seating is looking tired or you're planning a refit, get in touch – we'd be happy to help.
