Wellcraft®:
Wellcraft® was sold to Recreational Boat Holdings® LLC in 2010.
Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) Canvas
for Wellcraft® boats:
RNR-Marine™ is a leading dealer for
Ameritex® Fabrics,
who patterned and manufactured
Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) canvas for
Wellcraft® 180 Fish, 180 Sportsman, 202CC, 220 Sportsman, 232, 232 Coastal, 252, 252 Coastal, 27 Scarab, 27ST, 270 Coastal, 290 Coastal, 20 Scarab Sport, 30ST, 352 and 360 Coastal boats
from 2004 to current.
We produce new canvas
(diagram explaining what
each piece of canvas is called)
in the Black, Mediterranean Blue Tweed, Charcoal Tweed, Linen Tweed and Jockey Red Sunbrella
fabric colors originally offered by Wellcraft® 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 Wellcraft® canvas are size #8 (6 teeth/inch). Most (NOT All) Wellcraft® Bimini Tops have zippered frame (bow) pockets for easy installation. Wellcraft® 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). We can only sell canvas and covers direct for Wellcraft® boats over 2 years old. Wellcraft® OEM canvas part number scheme: Ameritex® tags p/n [nnnxxxccc] OR Taylor-Made® tags p/n [nnnccccxxx], where [nnnn] identifies the boat (an internal code), [xxx] identifies the canvas piece and [ccc] is the color code. Wellcraft® Hull Identification Number (HIN) = WELpssssmbyy (1981-2010) or PWEpssssmbyy (2010-current) , where [yy] = model year.
Windows are made with premium 30ga Eisenglass (Isinglass) flat (not rolled) clear vinyl window material.
Specifications, care and cleaning of
Sunbrella
, premium 30ga Eisenglass (Isinglass) 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 Wellcraft® boat.
This is the same canvas originally offered
from the Wellcraft® Factory
and sold by your local Wellcraft® 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 Wellcraft® Factory
when your boat was new.
Please be sure that you have the Factory Wellcraft® frame or matching canvas.
There are no cancellations, refunds or returns on Factory OEM canvas,
since it is all "made-to-order" for you.
Some owners (and even dealers, when new) installed their own
"after-market" Bimini Tops, T-Tops, Hard-Tops and Canvas, so please:
- Compare your canvas or frame to the Wellcraft® factory OEM photos shown here,
- Check for
"Ameritex" or "Taylor Made"
tags with Wellcraft® OEM part numbers on existing canvas,
- Verify that your existing canvas has # 8 gauge zippers
(factory original-equipment Wellcraft® OEM zipper size):
- #8 gauge zippers have 6 teeth per inch and will NOT zip to #10 zippers,
- #10 gauge zippers have 5 teeth per inch and will NOT zip to #8 zippers,
- See zipper size comparison photo at right,
- Please note that after-market canvas makers often use the large #10 gauge zippers.
- The zipper gauge size is actually the height of the teeth, 8mm or 10mm tall for example.
(#8 has 8mm tall teeth and #10 is 10mm tall for example).
Since it is very difficult to measure the zipper tooth height,
the easiest way to measure zipper size is to count the number of teeth over 2 inches:
a #8 zipper has 12 teeth over 2 inches and a #10 zipper has 10 teeth over 2 inches.
Additional Shade for Wellcraft® boats :
When its hot you can never have enough shade.
Our Boat Shade Kits
(starting at $524.00 , SALE PRICE: $487.32 (End of Summer Sale))
extend shade over the cockpit or bow
(can even be used like a Spray-Dodger)
and can be put up or taken down in minutes.
Folding T-Tops to fit
Wellcraft® boats: Our
T-Topless™
folding T-Top`
fits most Wellcraft® 17-22' center console boats.
This top lowers (or removes) in less than 15 minutes to store your
boat in your own garage or storage building/shed,
potentially saving $1,000's per year in storage costs
(or let you pass under a low bridge).
The T-Topless™ folding T-Top is made of
solid, yet lightweight, 1-inch diameter welded 316 Stainless Steel tubing
with Sunbrella® canvas
and install in an hour on the
Stainless Steel windshield grab rails of
Wellcraft® center console boats.
Factory Original-Equipment (OEM)
Covers for Wellcraft® boats : We offer
Factory OEM Bow and Cockpit Covers
(typically in durable Sunbrella®)
to fit your Wellcraft® boat perfectly.
Custom After-Market Covers for Wellcraft® boats :
We also offer after-market
Carver®
Custom-Fit™ Boat Covers (from $239),
Styled-To-Fit™Boat Covers (from $229) and
LaPortes®
Custom Fitted Boat Covers (from $449) and
in Sunbrella® marine fabric
(the best quality, breathable fabric for covers)
as well as some excellent
high-quality, but less expensive materials,
that are designed as a precise fit using
measurements taken from your particular model of outboard motor.
For Center Console boats, we also offer Universal (Not OEM)
Center Console (No T-Top) Covers,
Leaning Post Seat Covers and
Reversible (Flip-Flop) Seat Covers.
A popular solution for
boats with T-Tops are our
T-Top Console-Storage-Curtains,
which completely cover
the front cooler seat, entire console
and helm seats or leaning post
(starting at $484.00 , SALE PRICE: $454.96 (Winter Sale)).
This is a nice alternative to
the factory OEM console-cover
and OEM leaning-post or OEM pedestal-seat-cover,
typically costing less than the OEM console-cover alone.
Since Wellcraft® did not offer
a factory mooring cover for boats with a T-Top,
we offer custom-fit, durable
TTopCover® Under T-Top Boat-Covers
and Carver® Over T-Top Boat-Covers
for Wellcraft® center console and walk-around cuddy boats boats with
the Factory OEM T-Top or Hard-Top.
We have patterned hundreds of boats and T-Tops, so
search for your boat
or email to see if we have patterned your boat

Vinyl ...
Some of our aftermarket Tops and Factory OEM canvas are offered in marine grade Vinyl fabric.
Proposition 65 is a California law
intended to protect consumers in the state of California from exposure to certain chemicals that may be harmful.
The law requires that businesses notify Californians prior to sale if a product contains certain chemicals.
The law also requires that the manufacturer label the product with a warning.
Vinyl often contains the chemical Diisononyl Phthalate (DINP) which is on the list of chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
DINP belongs to a family of chemicals commonly added to plastics to make them flexible (products such as garden hoses, athletic shoes, automobile and marine seating).
Exposure occurs through ingestion, inhalation and, to a lesser extent, dermal contact.
While such products are perfectly safe to use in their intended manner, the law still requires that we warn Californians of the presence of the chemical.
-
RNR-Marine™ recommends
cleaning your canvas or cover
to maintain its original beauty and increase longevity.
- Covers
are made of a fabric with a weave that can "breathe"
to prevent mold and mildew.
Vinyl or vinyl coated fabric, such as
Weblon®, Stamoid®, Top Gun® or SeaMark® are not
recommended for covers, since the material does not breathe to ventilate the covered space.
We offer covers (depending on boat manufacturer) in one or more of the following fabrics:
-
Solution Dyed 100% Acrylic 9.5 oz./sq.yd. marine fabric
is used for
Console-Covers,
OEM Seat-Covers,
OEM Leaning-Post-Covers,
Bow Covers,
Cockpit Covers and
Mooring Covers.
This durable, 9.5 ounce per square yard fabric is colorfast and mildew resistant,
and is backed by the
Sunbrella® 10-year Limited Fabric Warranty.
Sunbrella® is the premium cover fabric in our opinion, since it is tough,
breathes and the fabric is woven with solution dyed acrylic fibers,
which last longer than polyester and retain colors extremely well.
Sunbrella® is made in the US (Anderson, SC) by Glenn Raven Mills®,
and is offered for all of our Factory OEM canvas and covers,
as well as our Carver® after-market
Custom-Fit™, Styled-To-Fit™
Boat Covers and Bimini Tops.
-
100% Solution Dyed 9 oz./sq.yd. Polyester fabric
(in Grey, Tan, Navy Blue or Black)
is used for
TTopCovers® T-Top/Hard-Top Boat Covers and
T-Top Center Console Storage Curtains.
Top-Notch® Elite® is breathable, reversible, water repellent, UV resistant,
dimensionally stable (won't sag or stretch) and mildew resistant.
Because the yarn is solution dyed, color fastness is very good.
Top-Notch Elite® is backed by a
5-year Limited Fabric Warranty.
-
100% Solution Dyed 8 oz./sq.yd. Polyester fabric
(in Navy Blue or
Black)
is used for
T-Top Boat Covers and
T-Top Center Console Storage Curtains.
Weathermax-80® is 100% solution dyed polyester
incorporating UV resistant characteristics for long-term color and strength retention
along with excellent breathablity and abrasion resistance.
The HydroMAX® finish raises the bar of hydrostatic performance and
delivers unsurpassed water repellency, mildew and oil resistance
without relying on environmentally unfriendly coating compounds.
WeatherMAX® has
anti-microbial properties
and a minimum UV resistance of 1000 hours
but only weighs 8.0 oz. per square yard
due to the use of a filament rather than a spun yarn like acrylic fabrics.
Excellent for anything from horse blankets to tough outerwear to marine grade tarps.
WeatherMAX® is backed by a
5-year Limited Fabric Warranty.
-
heavy duty, 600-denier, 7.6oz./sq.yd. solution dyed, marine grade polyester fabric
with a 100% polyurethane finish coating with a
is used for
Carver®
Custom-Fit™, Styled-To-Fit™ Trailerable and
Over-Top Boat Covers,
Universal Seat-Covers and
Universal Leaning-Post Covers.
100% Solution Dyed polyester means Sun-DURA® colors are part of the polyester fiber itself,
rather than the dye adhering only to the surface of the fibers.
7.6 ounce per square yard marine grade polyester offers superior resistance to harmful UV rays, fading, mildew, tearing and overall wear-and-tear.
Carver®'s own unique finish provides exceptional water repellency while maintaining breathability for the health of the boat.
Made in USA by Glen Raven Mills® (North Carolina manufacturer of Sunbrella®) for Carver® Industries.
Carver® Sun-DURA® is backed by a
7 Year Limited Warranty.
-
Black Resilience™
is a proprietary tough, black or white stretchy fabric (like Spandex)
with a quadruple coating on the outside to reflect the sun to
keep things cool beneath.
We use Resilience™ on our
T-Top-Storage-Bonnet (1-Year Limited Warranty) and
T-Top-Dry-Stack-Covers (3-Year Limited Warranty).

in the desert to keep them cool.

caused by poor workmanship (excludes abuse).
-
Some of our Factory OEM canvas is offered in ClimaShield® Plus fabric
as offered by the boat manufacturer.

(solution dyed so the fibers that make the threads are indvidualy dyed)
to provide superior fade resistance, product longevity and durability.
Inclusion of water-resistant anit-microbial coatings make this fabric resistant to the growth of mildew.
pigmented vinyl coated (always white vinyl on the inside),
9oz./sq.yd. 2-ply polyester fabric
with a 5 year manufacturer's limited warranty, commercially offered in a variety of colors.
-
Poly/Cotton Duck ...
50/50 polyester/cotton "Duck" fabric
(from Dutch "doek")
is a heavy, plain woven blended fabric
offering the advantages of both cotton and polyester fibers blended in one fabric.
Cotton is a fully breathable fabric, which helps prevent mold and mildew in your boat.
However, as the thickness increases, the breathability decreases.
100% cotton tends to rip and wear out easily, depending on the weave.
Cotton canvas is a very durable and abrasion-resistant fabric,
but it can be very thick and heavy.
Polyester does not breathe, but it is very elastic and
therefore tends to be very tear resistant.
However, it is not as abrasion-resistant as cotton canvas.
Poly/Cotton blend fabrics combine the strengths of the two fibers.
Poly/cotton fabric is breathable, tear-resistant,
and can be fashioned into abrasion-resistant fabrics, like canvas.
We make many older Factory OEM Mooring Covers
(to order) in
Grey
#6 weight (13oz per 36"x22" piece) 50/50 Poly/Cotton Duck fabric.
-

-
open weave vinyl covered polyester "Standard Mesh Solids" fabric
(very breathable) is used on
Gear-Nets and Mesh Windshield-Covers.
Although there are a
wide variety of Phifertex® colors,
most Gear-Nets and Windshield-Covers are Black, Grey or White.
-
Visors, Connectors, Spray-Shields,
Enclosures, Side-Curtains, Aft-Curtains and Gull-Wings
are typically made with a combination of canvas (above) and either:
- Flat, extruded 30-mil (0.030" thick, often called "30ga" or "30 gauge") clear, marine grade vinyl
(often called "Eisenglass" or "Isinglass")
as specified by the boat manufacturer.

premium, flexible Urethane-coated poly-vinyl-chloride (PVC) sheet "glass" (60% higher cost)
engineered to be ultra clear and resistant to the damaging effects from the sun's rays,
environmental fallout and scratching from handling.
It also blocks out the UltraViolet (UV) spectrum of light (90% UVA, 99% UVB, 99% UVC).
Read more about
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.
- RNR-Marine™ recommends
cleaning
and removing all clear-vinyl prior to trailering,
to avoid the harmful efects of rocks, bugs and oils on the vinyl!

Tidewater® boats.
- We sell at a discount (and without 6-12% Sales Tax) versus the local dealers
since we "make-to-order" (Just-In-Time = JIT)
using our inventory of 1,000's of patterns
(no need to carry inventory)
and thus our overhead is lower.
- Unfortunately, agreements with boat manufacturers prevent us from selling the current (last 2 model years)
factory-original (OEM) production canvas, frames and covers direct to the public.
Some photos show optional items mounted on standard products.
