Default Bow Dodger

I have a Hydra Sports 2500 CC. I would like to add a bow dodger. Very similiar to whats found on some Stamas (my girl friend can't be exposed to the sun). Is this something that an upholstery shop can do or are there manufactures?
I live in the Washington, DC metro area.

Thanks

Yes. Your local T-top/hard top marine fabricator should be able to build this for you a little bit better than just a run of the mill uph shop. However if the uph shop is a marine focused shop then they will do fine.

Depending on where you are at there will be plenty of business that will be able to take care of you.

Post where you live and you will get some great recommendations on who to do it.

I would try contacting hydra sports. I just got my new boat and need the dodger for my young sons to hide from the heat on occasion. Sea hunt makes one specifically for our boat so i assume it will fit perfect, so hydra sports may offer the same type of thing, just a thought.

This is how I set-up mine. I have a drop in the back for camping too.

Here is a link to a simmlar thread here on THT

Not an upholstery shop, but a marine canvas shop.

The boat's manufacturer might be the first option.
