Maybe time to treat the boat to a new one.

Does anyone know a good supplier based locally, or who would travel to Burnham-on-Crouch?

Wilkinsons, I have seen how much bespoke attention goes in to their covers. They are always busy, but don't need to advertise..

+1 for Mick at Wilkinsons in Burnham so he doesn' t need to travel there. Main problem these days is finding him, but there's a mobile no. on his loft door.

Cindy at Wilkinsons. Highly recommended, real attention to detail.

Three out of three for Wilkinsons! I will call him. Thanks.

Just to validate your decision, Mick did an emergency job on my genoa 3 years ago... last minute, inconvenient hours, and a rush... and did a great job at a very reasonable price. Couldn't be happier with the service.

Be aware that Cindy at Wilkinson sails (in Kent) is a different Wilkinson to Mick at Burnham... but both have fabulous (and deserved) reputations.

Her. It's just Cindy and her team now I think. She's tops for detail and knows her stuff.

Seems Wilkinsons is it...
If you want anyone anyone else, Paul at Gowen Ocean/Dolphin has designed and made some fabulous sprayhoods and tents for me in the past....?

Hi Falling Star,

We had great service and a great product from Paul and team at Dolphin. Very pleased with our spray hood and I know they do other canvas work.

Paul (Dolphin/Gowens) was also one of the proponents of Weathermax. I've been very pleased with it.

+1 for Dolphin.

Made a great job of our flybridge Canopy in Weathermax.

Apologies for the poor photo.
