Looking for someone to make up a cover for a complicated fixed bimini frame. Hastings Brighton area. Would appreciate any pointers to people I might try.
A little out of your preferred area, but Northrop Sails in Ramsgate have done a variety of good work for me, including a hood with special requirements, main cover, etc.
Give Brighton Marina a ring and ask to speak to Phil Godfrey the marina manager (not the general manager) his Mrs Nikki, is a canvas working wizard and is highly recommended when it comes to one-offs and the less standard type canvas jobs.
or this lady, April DeLahunt who Runs South Coast Hoods (she's a Canadian live-a-board) 07973 794433

Not sure is this is the same as Nikki mentioned previously but Nicky, in Newhaven, made an excellent sprayhood for me and has made lots of canvas items for other boats in the marina - very highly thought of. Her number is 01273 513862.
