Custom canvas is exactly what it says it is… Custom.
Every boat and every sailor is different.
Over 100 years of custom canvas has made us well aware that
the success of canvas work lies in the ability of the craftsman
to board the boat with it's owners to measure and design each
piece in reference to the people who will be using it . A bimini
which is too low for the 6' sailor underneath it does not make
for an enjoyable sail! The old adage "measure twice, cut
once" is the best guarantee for quality work to make for
enjoyable sailing.
Quality
canvas work, which includes dodgers, sail covers, awnings, wheel
covers, binnacle covers, biminis and boat covers, must be custom-fitted,
which means that the boat and the loft must be in close proximity
- HR&R is New England's premier canvas maker.
The crowning touch of almost all sailmaking or canvas work is
the sail cover, yet this one single element is given very little
attention by some sailmakers. All HR&R sail covers are made
in our loft by our craftsman and not "farmed out"
as many lofts tend to do.
