Maker for chimney?

Any recommendations for somebody to make a double-skin chimney for my boat?

Off-the-shelf ones don't fit properly, as the flue comes up at an angle, so the exit is off centre in the deck collar.

Boat is in Tewkesbury marina.

Thanks

Paul

I have the same problem as you. The solution was to buy a ready made double skinned chimney. I then set about the inside bit with pliers (the metal is quite thin) and eventually, managed to get it to fit. Not ideal I guess but it works, and didn't cost a fortune.

I brought two 100cm lengths of steel flue in two diameters as it is almost inpossable to find a 4 3/4" diameter chimmey and mad my own. The two flues are kept apart top and bottom with four bolts. As it does get a bit winded around here, So it is held in place with a pipe clamp. The extra length also gives a better draw on the file when first lit.
