Canvas Snaps

[jacktm]

My snaps keep pulling off my bow cover ( not off the boat). I have brought them back to my dealer a few time to have them replaced.

My dealer is an hour away from home.
Is there something I can buy to replace them? Is it difficult to do?

Thanks
Jack

Get the snap tool too ... It's $100some bucks, but if you continue boating, you'll need it anyway, especially when you get a boat with camper.
Also, order stainless steel snaps and not the nickel plated brass. The SS snaps will not warp and last much longer.

I bought the tool also and it works great. Just beware - when your dock neighbors see you use it, you will have a project on every boat around you.....
