NV Equipment, specialist in boat protection, through its various offers of covers, structures and textile covers launches the operation Les Automnales to help you prepare your boat for wintering and prepare the next sailing season.

Renewing your boat's protective covers

Everyone knows that winter is a period when the boat, whether it is on land or afloat, suffers from the weather. Therefore, it needs adequate protections: covers, back closures, covers... For that, NV Equipment launches the operation Les Automnales NV, to help the yachtsman to equip his boat in the best way. Thanks to promotional offers, the Vendée-based specialist of outdoor protection proposes to the owners to renew the canvas of their awnings or protective covers. It also offers a wide range of protective covers for steering wheels, steering columns and seats, outdoor tables or benches.

For a better closing of the cockpit, NV Equipment also proposes covers to be positioned at the back and in a side way on the hoods and biminis, allowing to close completely the back of the boat.

Modern colors for modern boats

NV Equipment has also worked on the aesthetics of its fabrics, as well as their harmony with accessories such as straps, zippers and handles or the colors of thread and velcro. A new harmony, privileging the tone on tone was developed to stick to the new expectations of the sailors. NV Equipement dealers have a digital tool to show customers the chromatic rendering of the new fabrics and their cohabitation with the equipment on board their boats.

Beyond winterization, each boat owner can take advantage of the Autumnals NV to personalize his boat and give it a second youth with protections in the colors of the day.

To facilitate the identification of the canvas and their renewal, NV products have labels. If the label shows signs of fading or has been torn off, if the boat is older than 2000, the dealer will ask the yachtsman for the CIN reference of the boat and 2 photos of the product on the boat in order to proceed to a good identification: a general view and a view on a detail such as a fastening, a handrail or a joint. This way NV will be able to replace the protection that perfectly fits the boat's cockpit in the harmony of the colors of the day (tone on tone).

An offer available for all European boaters

Whether your boat has a home port in France, Spain, Italy or the United Kingdom, you can benefit from the Automnales offer all over Europe. The whole European network of NV Equipment is associated to the operation. Each yachtsman can contact his local dealer to study with him the best choices related to the local weather conditions with the advice of a specialist.
