Standard Sprayhoods: The Proven Classic Our standard models are built to the original manufacturer’s specifications. These are ideal for owners of popular production yachts who want a high-quality, “plug-and-play” replacement that mirrors the factory aesthetic while utilizing superior 316L stainless steel and premium marine fabrics.
Custom Sprayhoods: The Bespoke Evolution For those who seek perfection, our custom solutions are engineered from the ground up. Using LiDAR 3D scanning, we map your deck’s unique geometry taking all modifications into account to create a one-of-a-kind frame. This allows you to customize the height for better visibility, add integrated grab rails, or extend coverage for maximum protection. If your boat is unique—or your requirements are—our custom frames provide a fit that “off-the-shelf” covers simply cannot match.
Investing in a new sprayhood is one of the most significant upgrades you can make to your sailboat. Beyond simply keeping the cockpit dry, a high-quality sprayhood enhances your boat’s silhouette, protects your companionway from UV damage, and extends your sailing season into the colder months. At Freyaframes, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern digital precision to deliver sprayhoods that stand up to the rigors of the North Sea and the Mediterranean alike.
When selecting a sprayhood, the “canvas” is more than just a cover; it is a high-performance barrier. Many budget manufacturers use standard polyester, which tends to sag when wet and fade within two seasons. At Freyaframes, we prioritize materials that offer dimensional stability and hydrophobic excellence.
We primarily utilize Sunbrella® Plus, the industry gold standard. Unlike standard acrylics, Sunbrella® Plus features a special resin coating on the underside, making it virtually waterproof while maintaining the breathability required to prevent cockpit mold.
The traditional way to get a new sprayhood involves a sailmaker visiting your boat twice: once to template and once to fit. This adds significant travel costs and “seasonal lag.”
Our “secret recipe” is our extensive library of Factory Patterns and 3D scanning/modelling process. By utilizing precise digital scans and original manufacturer specifications for brands like Jeanneau, Hanse, and Bavaria Cruiser, we can manufacture a sprayhood that fits your existing frames perfectly—delivered directly to your marina anywhere in Europe. In case the factory pattern is not available we can utilize 3D scanning workflow.
How the “No Boat Visit” Process Works:
This process reduces the carbon footprint of your purchase and eliminates the “waiting list” typical of local sail lofts.
A sprayhood fails most often at the points of highest tension: the zips, the frame pockets, and the attachment points to the deck.
A well-maintained sprayhood should last between 8 to 12 years. To ensure yours reaches its full potential, follow these professional maintenance protocols:
Whether you are looking for a replacement canvas for a Beneteau Oceanis or a complete frame-and-fabric kit for a Dufour Grand Large, Freyaframes provides the bridge between factory precision and custom quality.

* Note that custom sprayhood frames we can manufacture and deliver to your marina without boat visit but building full custom sprayhood requires minimum 1 boat visit and will be therefore offered only in limited marinas across Estonia.
