Award winning Chaparral® Boats was started as Fiberglass Fabricators in 1965, becoming Chaparral® in 1976 when it was moved to Nashville, Georgia by founder Buck Pegg and Jim Lane. Known for well powered, solid hulls and great customer support, Chaparral® continues to produce award winning boats as the flagship manufacturer of Marine Products Corporation®.
Canvas for Chaparral® boats was manufactured primarily by Ameritex® and Taylor-Made®, for which RNR-Marine™ is an online dealer. Because Ameritex® works directly with Chaparral® on patterns, design and quality, every boat canvas product is guaranteed to fit and match the original canvas.
To insure a perfect fit, please provide your Hull Identification Number (HIN), which is found on your registration papers as well as embossed on the starboard side of the transom). This Chaparral® HIN will provide more specific details about canavs for your boat as well as the month-year of manufacture and model year.

Strataglass® advantages.
Strataglass® is available in 20-mil (0.020"), 30-mil (aka 30ga = 0.030" thick),
40-mil (0.040") or 60-mil (0.060" = ~1/16") thickness.
The 40-mil is available in a clear, light smoke or dark smoke tint,
which is a special order (adds another 10% to the cost and 2 more weeks).
We recommend 30-mil for fishing boats, since the thicker vinyl is hard to roll up offshore.
Yachts may use 40-mil or 60-mil (even more costly) when the vinyl is seldom (if ever) rolled.
Strataglass® claims a
5 year life expectancy (care & exposure dependent),
but notes that many yacht owners see 10 or more years of use with proper care.
