Has anyone dealt with Harvard Marine Canvas before?

I'm in need of a full enclosure on my 1997 33da as I only have the bimini and rear valence. I asked around the marina to a bunch of guys and found it to be an average price of $4,500 to have one made from a canvas shop. After a quick search I eventually ran across an ebay listing for a brand new full canvas kit (minus snaps and tubes) for $2,500. I called the place Harvard Marine and the gentleman on the phone couldn't be any more helpful and explained that there are actually 3 variants of canvas for my boat depending on which plant it was assembled. I gave him my HIN and he happily told me that mine was produced in TN and that the canvas would actually be $2,500 and it will fit no problem.

In my opinion I will be more than happy to install snaps to save $2,000 but my concern is the quality of materials. He did say that they use sunbrella which to the best of my knowledge is a quality material. However I'm curious as to what they are stitching it with.

If anyone has gone through these guys please post opinions good or bad.

Thank you!
