What Weather Protection Options Can I Have for My Boat?

Written by Williams Jet Tenders

When you step into a Williams Jet Tender, you’re not just stepping into a boat but into comfort, performance, and protection. Whether you’re braving sun, spray, or the odd raincloud, we believe you should be able to enjoy the journey just as much as the destination. That’s why we offer a range of innovative, stylish, and practical tender weather protection solutions across all our models. We’ll show you how to stay comfortable on the water, even when the weather changes.

 

1. The Essential: Overall Covers – Simple Protection That Makes a Big Difference

 
Let’s start with the classic. The overall cover is one of the simplest, yet most valuable, additions you can make to your tender. These are custom boat covers, tailored precisely for each Williams model, from the nimble MiniJet 280 to the commanding EvoJet 70. Designed to slip effortlessly over your tender, they offer complete protection from sun exposure, rain, salt air, and even the occasional unexpected seagull.
 
Lightweight yet tough, these covers are crafted from durable materials that resist UV fading and moisture absorption, making them easy to handle, clean, and store. Whether your tender is stored on deck or moored at the dock, a well-fitted cover helps maintain its pristine condition. It’s the kind of everyday protection that preserves the beauty and performance of your tender for years to come.
 

2. Bimini Canopy: Your Pop-Up Shade That Travels With You

 
On those sun-soaked afternoons when the sea is calm and the views are endless, there’s nothing quite like cruising beneath the soft shelter of a Bimini canopy. This is one of our most popular luxury yacht accessories for guests who love to linger on the water comfortably. Offering shade with a sleek design, the Bimini adds both function and flair to your tender, available on SportJet and DieselJet models, and paired with front and rear canopy options on the luxurious EvoJet 70.

The Bimini canopy becomes your best friend during long lunches on the water or mid-cruise breaks. It gives your guests that little bit of extra comfort while still maintaining the clean lines and performance-driven feel of the tender.

 

 
 

3. Spray Dodgers: Keeping You Dry Without Spoiling the View

 
Spray dodgers are one of those quietly brilliant features you’ll wonder how you ever did without. These low-profile, transparent panels are fitted at the bow of your tender and are specially designed to block wind-driven sea spray from reaching the passengers. Available on select SportJet and DieselJet models, these components utilise high-clarity, durable materials that remain clear, resist UV damage, and integrate seamlessly into the tender’s clean aesthetic. Their shape and position are carefully engineered to avoid interfering with sightlines or airflow, a simple barrier that adds significant comfort.

Whether you’re heading to shore with guests dressed for dinner or simply cruising fast into a breeze, spray dodgers help keep everyone dry without compromising the boat’s open-air feel. They’re lightweight, easy to maintain, and always working in the background to improve the onboard experience. They’re a thoughtful touch that doesn’t shout for attention but delivers when needed.
 

4. Carbon Fibre T-Tops: Protection Meets Performance

 
For those who demand the very best in style and engineering, the EvoJet 70 and its electric counterpart, the EvoJet 70e, deliver something truly special. The carbon fibre T-top is lightweight, durable, and aerodynamically designed, providing permanent shade without adding bulk.

When paired with front and rear Bimini canopies and optional day covers, the EvoJet becomes a full-fledged luxury lounge with protection that extends from bow to stern. Whether you’re running guests ashore or just drifting through calm waters with a drink in hand, this system keeps everyone cool and comfortable. It’s tender weather protection at its most refined.
 

Thoughtful Weather Protection for Every Moment.

 
Every journey is different. One day you’re navigating a breezy coastline, the next you’re basking under a cloudless sky. What makes Williams Jet Tenders special is the way we anticipate these moments and offer solutions that never compromise the experience. From custom boat covers that slip on with ease to integrated structures that become part of the tender’s identity, each weather protection feature is made to work with you, not against your style or performance.
 
If you’re configuring your next tender or simply looking to elevate the one you already love, these thoughtful additions ensure every ride is as seamless and sheltered as it is thrilling.
Head over to our Build My Tender to explore these features in real-time. Design your perfect companion on the water and do it in style.
