are members of the Marine Fabricators Association, a division of the
Industrial Fabrics Association
International (IFAI). We pursue continual
improvement and mastery of the best of techniques, both old and new.
We
understand boating
We are
4th generation boat owners & craftsmen, also with a background in industrial
fabrics. Our on-the-water experience and solid designs assure you of
good value in products you can be proud of and enjoy using for years to come.
Personalized Service
We
are small by choice. You will be talking to the actual people
who will be doing your work. We are not interested in selling
you something you may not want. We will work with you up front to get the best solution,
to understand your needs
and wants, the particulars about your boat and how you use it,
your priorities, budget, limitations, and time frame. We are happy to discuss
and incorporate personal ideas you might like to see on your
boat.
We
are in this business as much for the enjoyment of hand-making
nautical gear as making a living - so let's have some fun with
it! The process takes time and can be difficult. If you don't
want to have fun, we can refer you to several other shops.
Craftsmanship
We stand behind our products,
using the best technique for each job. Workmanship is guaranteed for
2 years from date of installation, the best around. Material guarantees are per each
manufacturer's specific warranty.
We will not take short cuts with your
work, and there will never be a hidden cost. If you have
any concerns about your canvas product or service we will work
with you to find a satisfactory solution.
Materials We have access to the best materials and fittings
in the world, and we choose for each project based on your specific
requirements.
