Ok, I’m a bit tentative about this, but after getting prices to have it done ($5k), I’m pretty much resigned to doing this myself. My mother is a seamstress, and my brother in laws cousin has an Industrial sewing machine I can borrow. I’m more than just “handy”, wrenching and fabrication is my job, so most of this doesn’t scare me. What does concern me is selecting the correct vinyl. Has anyone here have good advice on where to buy, and what to buy? Does it make much difference? Is 4 way stretch a big benefit? Obviously, it has to be marine grade vinyl, but I’m finding it for as little as under $10/yard, upwards of $30/yard. Just trying to get good vinyl that will last, so I don’t have any regrets in a few years. I’ll listen to any advice offered, and reserve the right to change my mind. Although given the cost, that’s not likely.
