Hurricane Sally took my Beige Aft Cockpit Cover last summer. I've been trying unsuccessfully to find a replacement since then. I called Cutwater and they weren't any help. All the canvas makers in the Pensacola Area say they are too busy, but I think the job is just not big enough for them. Anyone have any ideas?

Was it made by King Canvas? If so they will ship you one.

GiLaw,
Please post what happens when you contact King. Do they have accessible records of what boats they've made canvas for?
My boat came with a seemingly brand new cockpit cover. At some point, when I recover from the financial pain of buying it, I'd like to add side curtains.

If King made it there should be a tag on it somewhere. That's the first question they asked me when I contacted them. Also to add side panels you may need to have zippers put on the existing top unless they're already there.pwensinger":af0yw9wb said:

King Marine Canvas (https://www.kingmarinecanvas.com/) made a new bimini for my 2012 R27 over this past winter. They made the original canvas for many Fluid Motion model boats and likely have the patterns as well assuming they made your original one. The bimini fit snug all they way around but I had to afix the snaps (included) in several locations as they won't know exactly where to put them. I can't speak for how busy they are but it seems everyone everywhere with anything to do with boats is busy now. HTH, GF

I sent you a PM with the information of a guy in Pensacola I used to make a replacement bimini top for our R-23.
