System Installation
Refer to the photo on the previous page for
installation tips. For further information contact your
closest authorized Regal dealer.
The main system components integrate reinforced
canvas with straps, carbon-fiber flexible poles,
camel backs, and stanchions. Note that the
sunshade system is only available on select vessels
with hardtops.
To install the bow sunshade do the following:
1. Connect the hardtop canvas latches to the
camel backs sewn into the canvas on both the
port and starboard forward end of the hardtop. 2.
Note that the carbon fiber poles are designed to
be collapsable. To install open the poles to the fully
extended position.
3. Install each of the poles in the forward grommet
holes in the canvas. Note that each grommet
includes a canvas mounted metal retaining ring.
Once the poles are inserted into the grommet
ensure the retaing ring is in the pole recess at the
pole top.
4. Raise each pole and insert the bottom end into
the deck mounted stanchion. Note that the poles
are normally in a bent position when installed which
assists in holding the retaining ring in the pole
recess.
5. Once the poles are positioned in the deck
stanchions connect the port and starboard middle
straps to the deck mounted camel backs and tighten
6. If installed use a similar installation procedure
with the stern sunshade.
7. Store system components in a dry bilge location
when not in use.
