Boat Canvas

Here’s a nice example of a navy top. This was fabricated in our canvas workshop with Mark Hood (outside of Boston MA). The navy top, or convertible top, typically stays up and attached to the windshield. This is different than say, a bimini with forward and side curtains. The forward curtain is removable with Bimini’s. With navy tops, the “bimini” is attached to the windshield. We decided to add a rollup center section in this model.

This top is in Sunbrella “Gold” and also features side curtains and aft curtain or “slant back”. It’s also a good example of our custom visor which conceals the zipper on the aft curtain.

Harbor Canvas Company, LLC. is a marine custom canvas fabrication shop in the Thousand Islands region of New York. The shop specializes in custom Bimini Tops, Bimini Enclosures, Hardtop Enclosures, Traditional and California Dodgers, Boat Covers, Boat Cushions and Upholstery. 
I service the entire Thousand Islands region, including Point Peninsula, Cape Vincent, Clayton and Alexandria Bay as well as Sackets Harbor, and Henderson Harbor.
My business model is simple; fabricate the best possible canvas products for your boat using only the highest quality materials and meticulous fabrication techniques. There may be other business models out there, but I build boat canvas that lasts and looks great. I want your friends, family, slip-mates and other boaters too see the value in the craftsmanship  of my products, their beauty and longevity. 

Next time you’re in a marina, take a look at the different boat tops. Pay particular attention to the details, how does the “intersection” between the side panels and Bimini or aft curtain look. You’ll often see loose panels or even gaps or openings between panels. Velcro corners warn and loos or exposed zippers..

Very clean, professional custom looks come with some effort and attention to these details. Our method makes sure all zippers are concealed. This makes for a very pleasing and clean appearance but more importantly it extends the life of the zipper by protecting it from the weather and UV exposure. This method also insures clean, tight fits between panels with no openings or gaps. It’s these details that you won’t find in factory canvas work or even some custom work. But it’s these details that make canvas work stand out!
