Canvas Fabricator Recommendations in the Baltimore (and south) Area?

[scooper321]

I'm looking to replace all of the canvas and glass on my 2003 320DA. The original canvas is done. Seams are coming apart and the glass is cracked in too many places. I've got a quote from Great Lakes (the folks that make the original canvas) but if I can keep my business local, I'd prefer to do so (if it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg). Plus, there's the "install it yourself" feature that comes with buying canvas from Great Lakes. I wouldn't mind taking this sort of project on, on a smaller level (say, a windshield panel). But not for the whole boat my first time.

So whom have you used for canvas replacements like this? I need it all: bimini, visor, fastback canvas (w/ window), windshield glass, side curtains, etc. Looking for recommendations of people in Baltimore/Pasadena/Sev Park area.

Thanks!

Does he have a web site, or even an address? I can't find him via Google or Google maps. He should at least be showing up...

I have used Weatherstopper Canvas ( http://www.weatherstoppercanvas.com/ ) many times in the past and have always been extremely satisfied with Brett's work. A few others on this site have used him as well. Give him a call and see what kind of price quote he gives you.

Started to type this and got distracted -- sorry if a dupe. I'd suggest calling Marvin at Charm City Marine Canvas (410-971-7189 or www.charmcitymarinecanvas.com). He had a booth across from us at the Baltimore boat show last weekend and I was very impressed with his answers to my questions and the feedback I got from talking to some of his customers.

Well, I did call Marvin this winter and I ended up having him replace my entire canvas. He was great to work with and helped me design/style a unique solution for my boat. No longer am I just another Great Lakes-outfitted Sea Ray! Marvin was responsive and reasonably priced. And he did a beautiful job!
