Interior hull lining made to measure for yachts and boats
A transformed interior — quiet and elegant. Prestige Nautic fits your hull lining with premium marine materials, across the entire French Riviera.
Hull lining — what is it?
Hull lining (vaigrage) is the interior covering of a boat's hull — the panels that cover the sides, ceiling and floor of the cabin. Its role is both aesthetic and technical: it dresses the interior while providing acoustic and thermal insulation against the hull.
Well-fitted lining radically transforms onboard comfort. It reduces hull noise, stabilises cabin temperature and gives the interior the refined look of a high-end living space.
Hull, engine and wave noise is absorbed. The cabin becomes quiet and restful, even under way.
The foam interlayer creates a thermal barrier between hull and cabin. Less condensation, stable temperatures summer and winter.
Marine fabrics, faux leather, genuine leather, alcantara, suede: your choice of covering personalises the cabin's atmosphere to your taste.
Every piece is cut and fitted to the unique curves of your hull. No generic products: everything is tailored to your boat.
Upholstery & finishing
The same care goes into the upholstery: noble materials, precise stitching and onboard comfort.

Fitting and fastening on board
Panel placement, fine adjustment of cuts, fastening with marine clips or stainless screws depending on configuration. The joints are invisible.

Everything about hull lining
What is a boat's hull lining?
Hull lining is the interior covering of the hull and bulkheads, in marine fabric, faux leather, leather or technical foam. It improves the aesthetics, comfort and acoustic/thermal insulation of the cabin.
Does hull lining really improve insulation?
Yes, considerably. Well-fitted lining reduces condensation, dampens hull noise and stabilises interior temperature — a real comfort gain, both under way and at anchor.
Which materials do you offer?
Depending on the finish and budget: marine fabrics, faux leather, leather, alcantara, foam panels. All selected to withstand marine humidity and UV. For details of materials and fitting steps, see our complete hull lining guide (FR).
Can the lining of an older boat be redone?
Yes. Redoing the lining is one of the most effective ways to modernise a tired interior, often as part of a full refit.
How long does fitting take?
It depends on the area and complexity (cabins, lockers, ceilings). We set a precise schedule at the quote stage to limit your boat's downtime.
Do you work in my marina?
