luv_fishn Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Hey peoples! The canopy on my Ally Craft Premier is in desperate need of a resto or replacement. Trouble is, im not sure whether to have it re-trimmed or buy a new one. The side clears are in good condition so i don't need to re-trim or replace those. Im pretty sure i wont be able to find the same colour if i buy a new one, which matches the boats interior trim and exterior decals. Does anyone have a rough idea on prices? or other suggestions on what to do?... Cheers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Do you know the name of the dealer who origionally sold the boat , if so , he should be able to advise the name of the trimmer who made the origional covers. Perhaps he still has the colour available although yours may now be a bit faded. Here are the colours available from a trimmer at Sutherland. They may be of interest http://www.mobileboatcovers.com/ Worth a call as his prices are very copetive Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luv_fishn Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Ok so i rang the number on the canopy to no avail, number is disconnected .. So i contacted mobileboatcovers.com and received a quote of $480. Thinking this is too much, i contacted another mobile canopy trimmer with quote of $445. Does this price sound about right for a retrim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
