New canvas

[Digger]

Hi everybody.
First of all - great to find this page!
Now, I just got my 1999 240 Sundancer, bought it in Mystic US and shipped it to Stockholm Sweden.
unfourtunately, the canvas(mooring set and camper top) got lost during transport overseas.
Anyone knows a good place to have a new set made? No dealers in Sweden or Scandinavia and cusom making is very expensive.

Greatful for any advices.

This is the company that made most of Sea Ray's original canvas.

You can buy directly from them, and they are a pleasure to deal with.

Best of luck,

Great company to work with. You just need to have the snaps installed on site. 10 day turn around

I just used Great Lakes for my boat canvas too. They are a great company to work with. Very nice people with great service.

they have some european locations it maybe cheaper than shipping from US
those metal bars are heavy and big for shipping

I know that they have dealers in Poland (they used to make few small models in Poland, maybe still do?)

Hi Rikard,

I would like to hear your experience about importing a boat to Scandinavia:

1. How much did the transportation cost?
2. Where did you get the Ce-marking and how much was it?
3. Was the boat surveyd?
4. Are you happy with the boat? :thumbsup:

I live in Helsinki, Finland and my boat is a Yamarin 58Br with a Yamaha 150 Vmax. I will sell it in the near future so that I can buy a Sea Ray 240/260 Sundancer.

I have been reading SRO and CSR for a long time so I thought that it was now the right time to register because I would like to have some information about importing a boat.

Ps. Jag kan också svenska :wink:

KeKe,

Welcome to the board!!! You will want to post your boat information in the signature (make, model, motor, etc). You may also want to go to the who's who section and introduce yourself.
Again welcome to CSR!!!

As for your question you should start a new post with these questions. Couple of reasons, one you will get more responses, the search feature will be more beneficial, and because without is considered hi-jacking a thread.

Thanks

Wesley

Thank you Wesley :smt001 I sent a private message to Mr.Digger so you can delete my reply (for some reason I cannot do it myself because I do not get the option: "Delete this post"). I will post information of my boat albeit it´s not a Sea Ray. I will also introduce myself in the who´s who section.
