Same day canvas service?

lawn psycho · 05-02-2010, 05:54 PM

My cockpit cover has some threads that have come loose on the hem on the aft corner. It's simple repair but I don't want to leave the boat without a cover.

Is there anyone who can do same day repair since this is a simple stitching job? I'd hate to let it go all season and make it worse by waiting for fall.

Boat is now glossy clean and ready for the slip next weekend!

My recomendaton would be to drive around the lake (pick places ahead of time that seem like they would qualify) take the cover in hand and ask. I once needed something simple and just walked in..the Canvas place was just south of Wolfeboro. They did the job right on the spot. NB

I had a very similar issue a few years back. I took it over to Village Canvas in Meredith and not only did he do it for me while I waited, he also refused to accept payment.

Village Canvas would be my suggestion as well.... They are out 104 by where Jackson Star was located.

I am a little partial, as it is home...but Fay's canvas guy has pretty much bento over backwards for me. Always does great work and I am sure can do a quick in and out fix.

GO SOX!!!

Try Image Awnings in wolfeboro. They made some great window covers for our porch, and quickly too. They do boat work too.
