Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) Canvas for Correct Craft® boats: RNR-Marine™ is a leading dealer for Ameritex® Fabrics, who patterned and manufactured Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) canvas for Correct Craft® Nautique 196, 206, 210, 211, 216, 220, 226, 230, 236 & 270 FCT, Air, Super Air, SA, BR & Titan boats from 2003 to current.
We produce new canvas
(diagram explaining what
each piece of canvas is called)
in the Sunbrella
fabric colors originally offered by Correct Craft® only.
Note: 
A laser-engraved, black rubber tag is sewn into every Ameritex® (we no longer make Taylor-Made® which have P/Ns starting with 4 or 6) original-equipment canvas or cover (a laser printed sticker is on each frame), and the only way we are able to manufacture the exact canvas, cover or frame specific to your boat is if you provide the part number (P/N) on that tag: We will require the P/N (1xxxxxxxx , NO 4xxxxxx or 6xxxxx), DT date code AND A PHOTO of this Ameritex® Black Tag (or sticker) and WE WILL MAKE THIS EXACT PART NUMBER, so there are NO RETURNS, REFUNDS or EXCHANGES. Zippers on OEM Correct Craft canvas are size #8 (6 teeth/inch). Correct Craft®/Nautique® 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).OEM canvas part number scheme: (Ameritex® tags) [nnnxxxccc] where [nnn] identifies the boat (an internal code), [xxx] identifies the canvas piece and [ccc] is the color code. Correct Craft® (Nautique) HIN = CTCsssssmbyy , where [yy] = model year.
Windows are made with 30ga Eisenglass flat (not rolled) clear vinyl window material.
Specifications, care and cleaning of
Sunbrella
, 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 Correct Craft® boat.
This is the same canvas originally offered
from the Correct Craft® Factory
and sold by your local Correct Craft® 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 Correct Craft® Factory
when your boat was new.
Please be sure that you have the Factory Correct Craft® frame or matching canvas.

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.
