Folks,
I've got a 1993 27' Sea Ray Weekender.
I'm replacing all the canvas covering on the boat. I got lucky and found the OEM canvas manufacturer for the boat ... Great Lakes Boat Tops. They are the OEM boat top manufacturer for Sea Ray and many other boat brands. Give them the boat's hull ID, and they will provide all parts of the OEM canvas (for, I believe, a reasonable price). I got my OEM replacement canvas from Great Lakes Boat Tops last week and I am pleased with it.
However, there is a problem with my boat ... I suspect that one of the two previous owners of the boat altered the stainless steel structure (probably to gain headroom) and had custom canvas made for the custom stainless steel structure. Needless to say, the new OEM canvas does not fit the custom stainless steel structure.
I think the best resolution may be to alter the "legs" of the custom stainless steel structure to original OEM lengths, but I haven't yet found those dimensions online.
Does anyone know those dimensions, or how/where to find them online?
Thanks,
Bob St John
