OUR SERVICES

At Nautical Needle we specializes in custom upholstery and soft furnishing services for boats and other marine vessels. Key services typically include:

Boat Upholstery

Marine upholstery is designed to withstand water, sun, salt, and mildew. The main components include:
  • Marine-grade vinyl: Waterproof, UV-resistant, mildew-resistant.
  • Foam padding: Closed-cell foam resists water absorption; open-cell foam is more breathable but needs waterproof backing.
  • Thread: UV- and rot-resistant threads like polyester or Tenara (PTFE) are used.
  • Backing: Often includes a mesh or waterproof layer for added durability.
Upholstery Process
Step 1: Removal
  • Old upholstery is carefully removed.
  • Hardware (staples, screws) is extracted.
  • The underlying structure (wood or fiberglass) is inspected for damage or rot.
Step 2: Measuring & Patterning

  • Alternatively, measurements are taken and new patterns are created.
Step 3: Cutting & Sewing
  • Fabric and foam are cut to size.
  • Seams are double-stitched for strength.

Step 4: Assembly
