Mount It Once. Shade It Forever.
Complete Umbrella System
$700
SKU: SP-UMB-SYS-CMP-BLK
Shade on demand for your boat. Our umbrella system drops into flush mounted receivers in seconds, cranks open to 7 ft of shade, and lifts right out when you're ready to go.
Our umbrella system is built different. Two receivers mount flush into your deck: a main receiver and a locator receiver that keeps the umbrella from spinning. The push button base drops into the receivers with no tools, the umbrella slides into the base, and an easy crank handle opens the canopy to a full 7 ft. A push button tilt lets you angle the shade where you need it. Both the canopy and the powder coated stand come in seven colors, so you can match your boat.
Umbrella canopy color: Black
Stand powder coat color: Black

The receivers go where you need shade. These are some of the spots owners ask us about most.
Ski Locker
Shade right where you hang out on the back of the boat.
Front of a Deck Boat
Cover the bow seating for all-day comfort.
Trailer
Set up shade at the ramp, campsite, or tailgate.
Jeep
Take your shade off the water and onto the beach.
Real Shade, Mid-Lake
Add umbrella shade at your platform or deck while relaxing on the water. Discuss the canopy and mounting arrangement for your boat with the shop.
Locks to the Platform
A flush receiver provides a mounting point for the umbrella pole. The location needs a suitable mounting surface and access underneath; share photos so the shop can review your setup.
Built in-house. Planned for your boat.
The mount is machined and powder coated in-house by Swim Platforms LHC LLC. Receiver installation and everyday umbrella setup are separate steps; discuss installation with the shop first.
One install. Shade every time you stop.
Install the receivers
Two small receivers mount flush into your deck: a main receiver and a locator that keeps the umbrella from spinning. They fit almost anywhere you can reach underneath to secure the hardware, like a swim platform, swim step, ski locker, or the front of a deck boat.
Drop in the base and pole
The base has two different size pins that drop right into the receivers, so it only goes in one way and won't rotate. Slide the umbrella pole into the base. No tools, no loose brackets to lose overboard.
Crank it open
Turn the hand crank on the pole and the 7 ft canopy opens over the deck. That's it, you're set.
Built for PWCs and Sea-Doos too
Shade for your PWC.
Sandbar Shade can also be fitted to a suitable PWC or Sea-Doo mounting location. Share your model and photos with the shop to discuss the receiver position and installation.
