The customer is responsible for the accuracy of the boat information provided. We manufacture the canopy based on the boat’s model year or hull number. Sometimes there may be different canopy versions for the same boat depending on the date of manufacture.

Verify your boat's model year from the WIN number before ordering

Open the guide to learn how to read the WIN code

View guide

The WIN code (Watercraft Identification Number) reveals when, where and by whom a boat was built. The system has been in use since 1998 as part of the EU Recreational Craft Directive.

Location on the boat

The WIN code is located on the transom on the right side, just below the rubbing strake. On boats without a transom, it is on the right side of the stern.

Code structure

Month codes

A = Jan • B = Feb • C = Mar • D = Apr • E = May • F = Jun • G = Jul • H = Aug • I = Sep • J = Oct • K = Nov • L = Dec

Tip

Always record the WIN number when buying a boat. It helps identify the vessel in case of theft and verify the manufacturing year when purchasing a used boat.

Canopy frames

If your current canopy is made by VA-Varuste and you are ordering a replacement of the same model, the new canopy will fit your existing frames. You can continue to use your current frames if they are in good condition.

If the canopy frames are bent or broken, it is recommended to order new frames with the replacement canopy. Also, if you are not ordering the same model as your old canopy, you may need new frames. Additionally, if there is no certainty that the new canopy is the same model as your current one (e.g. the current canopy is not made by VA-Varuste), new frames are recommended.

Canopy frames are manufactured from stainless steel tube or aluminium, depending on the canopy model. Tube thickness also depends on the model; the most common sizes are Ø18 (with plastic fittings), Ø20, and Ø25mm (with stainless steel fittings).

Choose canopy fabric colour

The canopy fabric is always premium Sunbrella Plus. All colours are the same price.

Choose canopy finishing

You can choose from 3 colour options that affect the edge binding, reinforcements, sewing thread and zipper colours.
