Chief of the Boat

October 26, 2013, 07:01:22 PM Last Edit: October 26, 2013, 08:02:39 PM by Chief of the Boat
I decided it was time to replace the front clear canvas window (20 years old).  Now that I am retired from the Navy I have time on my hands, I sent a PM to the Canvas Guy (Gary) to see if he could hook me up.  My 1st Mate and I made a road trip to Sequim on Friday and I have a new front window.  I know where I will have my canvas done when it finally wears out.

You probably can, I never roll it and store it in the storage bag.  I do roll the front window and snap it to the top to let the breeze through.

Yes, Gary is the man! I think fondly of him every time I look through the windows he installed on my top.

Chief, judging by the window view in the second photo... it appears that you are way too close to shore. Better come about.

Did you have to take the boat or just the top to Gary? I need to have the same done to mine.

I took the top with the bows removed.  Reinstalling the bows is another story.
