Folks,
I have a 1993 27' SeaRay Weekender that needed a new canvas top.
Earlier this year, I ordered all pieces of the canvas from Great Lakes Boat Top (GLBT, who is the OEM manufacturer of the canvas top and the SS framework) even though I suspected the SS framework had been altered and that the canvas may not fit.
I received the canvas and am very pleased with it. But, as I suspected, the SS frame had been modified and the canvas did not fit.
I've been collaborating with GLBT to get the OEM dimensions of the SS framework (primarily the dimensions of the main SS bow), and they have been helpful. But we've reached a point where additional information from them is considered to be proprietary. I understand and respect that.
I now need to pursue other avenues of getting the information. I will certainly reach out to SeaRay, but does anyone know of others that I can reach out to?
I could, of course, order the entire SS framework from GLBT, but that is around $1,000 and I am trying to avoid that.
Thanks,
Bob St John
