TuuciOcean Master Max Nautical Teak 8' x 12' Rectangular Center Post Umbrella

Drawing inspiration from classic and modern sailing architecture and details, this innovative design sets a new standard for teak parasols. A uniquely reinforced mast sports an aluminum spine, adding strength while also affording the integration of an internal telescoping crank lift system, something never before achieved on a teak parasol. The crank assists with an easy open to close while the telescoping elements allow for unobstructed closure over the furniture below.

Inspired by Tuuci's marine roots, the premium teak parasol blends the authentic beauty of natural teak hardwood, classic elements of nautical design and durability of corrosion-proof materials. The Aluma-CORE mast enables our proprietary gear system and telescoping mast, which allows the parasol to gracefully deploy without interfering with the furniture below. This innovative core is reflected in external chassis reinforcements clad in polished yachting grade 316 stainless steel alloy. The Aluma-CORE mast also enables our proprietary gear system and telescoping mast, which allows the parasol to gracefully deploy without interfering with the furniture below.

Responsibly harvested teak of the highest grade will gracefully develop a gray patina over the long life of the product. Expertly cured, the teak sourced for each parasol has the necessary natural oils locked in to protect from dry rot and splintering. The natural teak used throughout the hubs, ribs and struts marry with polished metal elements adding elegance and a nod to our aluminum roots.

TUUCI founder Dougan Clarke grew up in Miami, spending every free moment on the ocean. A skillful boat rigger with an entrepreneurial spirit, he saw an opportunity to reinvent a product that allowed people to connect with the outdoors more comfortably.

Unsatisfied with the shade solutions that existed, he looked to marine technology to transform the category of shade from short-lived and ordinary to enduring and extraordinary. He started TUUCI in a boat rigging workshop in 1998, setting in motion a shade revolution that continues to set the industry standard.

Constructed entirely by hand, each shade system is a precisely crafted engineering marvel. Inspirations from a lifelong passion for the ocean are reflected in the design and detail of every product. Industry-leading patents, award-winning designs, marine grade components, serviceability, and performance canopies are part of an unyielding commitment to redefine the shade industry. 

TUUCI parasols use marine-grade aluminum alloy, fiberglass, and stainless steel to create beautiful yet extremely durable shade structures that perform in the toughest environments. For over a decade, TUCI has perfected the art of creating the indistinguishable appearance of hardwood, impervious to seaside corrosion and UV degradation. The result is their Plantation Aluma-TEAK, a product uniquely inspired by nature with everlasting resilience. The modular design of their patented independent bracket hub system allows for simple maintenance, adding years of life to each shade structure.
