Default New enclosures

Alright, the old curtains have been reduced to being tied on in a few places with 100LB. ANDE. Time for new enclosures. Need suggestions for someone between Richmond and Reedville. Preferraly near Burgess/Reedville because the boat is in the water near Smith Point.
Thanks in advance. Bryan

Ship's Tailor in White Stone. Did the bimini and side windows on my Tiara. Nice work. Be sure to specify Tenara (goretex) thread if you want it to last.

Try Lisa's canvass located in Chesapeake Beach. Real good work and low prices. Bob

Hope you have better luck getting someone in that business up that way to come to you than i have had here in the tidewater area. For the last 3 weeks i've called about 8 different canvas top co's to look at my boat and they all said they get down to the marina and give me a price on a top. Was suppose to meet 2 of them at a appointed time and both were no shows, called on cell and got answer machine, and never heard from them again. Rite NOW I am waiting for a call from one of them to take the info to look at boat and give price. Made call yesterday and was told i'd be contacted by a fella today, [yea rite]. I need a job like that, you can turn work and money down, just blow customers off and lay around the shack all day. I mean the Rockafellas, Bill Yates, and Donald Trump have to go to work. What do these top guys know that the rest of the business world doesn't? Maby the 9th one will be the charm and at least look at the job for me. Good luck on your hunting, i'am running out of top co's.

Found a few in the NN area. Linda Boorman (sp?) is going to repair my existing enclosures. I also talked to Banes northern neck upholstery in callao and they were very helpful and quick to return calls. They were half the price of ships tailor, used quality materials and have good references from several people I talked to.
Good luck, I'm a builder, and it seems the same way in our business. Alot of the subs, salesmen and suppliers are shit for service right now. I think they enjoy having the recession as an excuse to not have to work.
