Hi folks.

 

Where is the best place to buy canvas to DIY a cratch cover?

It's working very well - used a heat gun to seal the folded edges, turnbuckles to fix to the forward frame and rings punched through to hold shockcord to secure to the cabin. Everything's holding together after a couple of months of boating from Wakefield to Loughborough. I haven't tried to embed zips in the flaps.

Acorn Canvas - they were excellent and sell all the various fittings etc too, i used them for our DIY cratch. Keep in mind it stretches....
