Glastron®: Started in 1956 in Austin, Texas by Robert R. Hammond, William D. Gaston, Robert A. Shoop and Guy W. Woodard, Glastron® is one of the world's largest and longest-lived boat manufacturers, selling boats world-wide.
Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) Canvas for Glastron® boats: RNR-Marine™ is a leading dealer for Ameritex® Fabrics, who patterned and manufactured Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) canvas for Glastron® 170, 175, 180, 185, 195, 205, 210, 215, 219, 225, 229, 235, 240, 249, 255, 259, 278 and 289 boats from 1998 to 2015.
We produce new canvas (diagram explaining what each piece of canvas is called) in the Beige, Forest-Green, Captain-Navy, Mediterranean-Blue, Mediterranean-Blue-Tweed, Burgundy, Concord and Jockey-Red Sunbrella(r) andamp; White Vinyl fabric colors originally offered by Glastron® only. Note: Zippers on OEM Glastron® canvas are size #8 (6 teeth/inch). Most (NOT All) Glastron® Bimini Tops have zippered frame (bow) pockets for easy installation. Glastron® installed the snaps in their boats, canvas and covers at their factory, so we cannot install the canvas snaps for you because we do not have locations (see Canvas/Snap Installation to learn about installing snaps). Glastron® began making ther own canvas in-house in 2016, so we do not have anything after 2015. Glastron® OEM canvas part number scheme: Ameritex® or Taylor-Made® tags, where [xxx] identifies the canvas piece and [ccc] is the color code. Glastron® Hull Identification Number (HIN) = GLAsssssmbyy (1972-2010) or PGLsssssmbyy (2010-current) , where [yy] = model year. Windows are made with 30ga Eisenglass flat (not rolled) clear vinyl window material. Specifications, care and cleaning of Sunbrella(r) andamp; White Vinyl , 30ga Eisenglass flat (not rolled) clear vinyl and other canvas materials are detailed below. In some cases (if the boat mfgr is out of business for example) you can upgrade the windows to Strataglass coated clear vinyl (approx. 50-60 percent more cost), however the standard Eisenglass (clear vinyl) will last for many years with proper care, cleaning and storage. We utilize our library of 1,000's of patterns to produce new, "made-to-order" Factory Original canvas for your Glastron® boat. This is the same canvas originally offered from the Glastron® Factory and sold by your local Glastron® dealer (local dealers may only go back 5 years or so however, and charge local sales tax, which we do not charge except in SC and FL). No other canvas manufacturer has these patterns or the ability to produce the exact factory Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement canvas and covers that were offered from the Glastron® Factory when your boat was new.
Please be sure that you have the Factory Glastron® frame or matching canvas.
