It depends.. Nice calm day and blazing sun they work great. I don't really like my anchor shade because it's usually windy by me during the summer days and anything over 10-15 mph winds it's worthless.

I agree w/ Panther. Where we boat in NJ, the wind tore mine up after two uses and then to boot when I put it away, it caught and ripped the headliner in my old boat cabin! I was pizzed that day!
I would like to know if there is anything out there as well besides anchorshade.
