Hello, does anyone know a supplier or have ideas for a canvas winter cover? I prefer to avoid the cost of a canvas shop making trips out to the boat to measure and fit. ie. a custom one, wish to order something that has been built before. I recall there was a canvas company in maine or new hampshire that built some for the t37. thanks carl sutherland

Dear Carl,

I have known other boat owners to say very nice things about the covers this company makes. I see them from time to time in yards in New England and they can be used for inwater boat storage after a small modification to the cover.

A Sunbrella winter cover is a big ticket item. Here is an alternative. Get yourself a Sailrite catalog. They sell sewing machines and materials/supplies and have DVDs on various projects. I would like to report that I have a new winter cover; but, not that far along yet.

I bought a machine almost a year ago and have tackled small projects. I have a lot of canvas articles on my boat and finally got burned out on canvas shop charges. The last straw was a $3500 dodger re-build. My logic is that everything is engineered to my satisfaction now and I will have to only duplicate old work in future projects.
