Canada is a big country with two major seaboards, as well as coastline along the great lakes. Where are you exactly? Just about any sail loft can and does do canvas as well.

Re: sprayhood maker?

I am in Newfoundland. We dont have anyone here. So my options are open as to where in Canada. Was hoping someone on here had some previous experience with a reputable maker.
Need the whole works, stainless tubing and fittings ect. So making my own would be an education that might be more costly than buying premade. Certainly open to learning though if someone likes to teach

Yes, checked with United Sail first. They could make me one, but were very honest about the difficulties as they have no template for my boat. I suspect this may be a problem wherever I try. But, hey, ya never know till you try right?

I think you're going to run into a lot of that. I'm not sure I'd want to buy a dodger without the guys custom framing and patterning anyway.

Good luck though!!
