Exceptionally Strong, Lightweight and Reliable. Our Extra Heavy Tarps are the perfect solution for Boat Covers, with Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets, 100 % Waterproof for Life and 3 Year UV Guarantee.

100% Waterproof

Our Boat Covers are born waterproof. The raw materials used in their production are waterproof, ensuring that each layer of our tarps provides complete waterproof protection. Unlike other tarps, which often have only a thin, water-resistant coating applied after manufacturing, our tarps offer full waterproofing throughout.

XF Film - Swiss Patented Film

Our Boat Covers are made from XF Film. This specialized Swiss-patented film ensures exceptional strength, durability, and reliability. Our unique manufacturing process sets our tarps apart from anything else in the industry. You can learn more about the XF Film and our production process here.

UV Resistant - 3 Year Guarantee

ARK Boat Covers offer excellent UV resistance and come with a 3-year UV guarantee. Designed for extended outdoor use, they will not peel, crack, or disintegrate under harsh sunlight, making them ideal for Australia's extreme weather conditions.

Ultrasonic Welded Eyelets

The eyelets on the Boat Covers are ultrasonically welded onto a sleeve of thick plastic, integrating them into the tarp material for added strength.

Strong & Reliable

During our manufacturing process, the layers of raw material are laminated in opposing directions, creating greater cross-directional strength. Unlike normal poly tarps that are typically woven in a single direction, ARK Boat Covers offer superior strength and better field performance.

Backed By Australian Lab Tests

All our tarps have been tested to meet various Australian standards. When we say our covers are tried and tested, we mean it. We control the entire production process from start to finish, ensuring all quality and compliance checks are met before the product reaches your hands.

THE ARK DIFFERENCE

ARK TARP - XF FILM OTHER WOVEN TARPS
UV resistance UV inhibitors are incorporated in the raw material blend - 3 Year UV Guarentee UV inhibitors are added as a thin coating
Waterproofness Raw material is inherently waterproof throughout Water resistance layer is added as a thin coating
Longevity Long life as tarp is 100% waterproof and UV resistant through the entire thickness of the product Thin coatings crack and peel off causing early failure
Strength Layers are laminated in opposing directions creating greater cross directional strength Layers are woven in one direction which is inherently weaker
Eyelets Ultrasonically welded on a sleeve of thick plastic, making them part of the tarp material Rivetted on the tarp making them more vulnerable as they punch through the tarp material causing potential tear points.

Tips & Tricks

When using the tarp to cover your boat we highly recommend that you do the following:

  1. Ensure that all the eyelets are secured to distribute the load on the tarp evenly
  2. Rope is applied across the top of the tarp to prevent the tarp from becoming a parachute against the wind. In doing so tie a rope to every eyelet, passing it over the tarpaulin to the opposite eyelet tying the rope slightly shorter than the tarpaulin at that eyelet
  3. Allow for water to run off from the tarp and not pool in the middle. The water will not cause any leaks, but the pooling will add extra weight and strain to the eyelets.

    Great customer service at purchase advising of delivery delay due to low stock then tarp arrived promptly. Tarp is well made with good and enough eyelets. Time will tell how it copes with the sun. We just had 140mm rain in 48hrs and boat was dry inside 👍

    Product seems great! Delivery time after reading online advertisement regarding how quickly items dispatched (same day or next) was disappointing unfortunately I had to contact Ark & ask where my order was? then I received the old ‘they’re being sent today’ hmmm that’s some 5 days after order? Otherwise I would’ve given 5 stars

  7. Verified reviewVerified review - view originalExternal link

    Tarp is great, way too big for what I need it for. Unfortunately, there was no stock of what I required at the time.

  10. Verified reviewVerified review - view originalExternal link

    I’m very happy with the tarp so far. A lot strong than the previous large hardware chair store one it replaced due to it tearing after 6 months of use.
    I’m hoping to get many years of use out of my ARK Tarp.
