Polycarbonate Enclosures

My 370 Carver is in the process of receiving new canvas.  The aft deck is surrounded by Makrolon Polycarbonate and sunbrella exterior canvas with stamoid lining the inside for superior durability and ease of maintenance.  All of the seams are stitched with a gore tex thread that is not susceptible to breakage, leaking or fraying like other canvas threads.

The photos show the custom bridge cover I had made this spring to make it easier to take on and off during the summer months when I like to go topless on the bridge.

The bridge will receive the same treatment as the aft deck with the exception of using a softer strataglass material that is able to be rolled and stored easier than the aft enclosure which I leave up 90% of the time.

Andrew Brandon from Ship Shape Canvas is the artisan behind all of this and I can't say enough great things about the work he has performed for my customers as well as myself.  The work is truly second to none.
