The Inspiration Behind Sebba Shade

Sebba Shade (pronounced seb-buh) was invented out of necessity by friends living in St Petersburg, FL. We wanted to address a common problem for boaters: the need for effective sun protection & more shade to take a break from the relentless heat!

Like others, we tried beach umbrellas, tarps, towels; anything to create more shade for our family & friends. We searched the internet but there are few solutions and none we liked. We wanted something that didn’t exist. We would have to invent it.

Determined to create a solution that was both functional and stylish, while also being easy to use and install, we got to work. It had to be rigid and strong, but light as air. Movable, rotatable, flexible…to be placed anywhere on a boat at any time. It had to be easy to put up and take down. It had to cantilever over the sides.

After several years of R&D, we launched our product in 2022. It has solved our boat shade problems and it will solve yours too. We hope you love it!
