Spray Dodger
Spray dodgers offer shelter from water, sun and wind over your main hatch, while enhancing the overall look of your yacht. Fabric Solutions custom tailors each spray dodger to perfectly fit the size and style of your yacht. Whether you are adding a spray dodger for the first time, need a replacement dodger for an existing steel frame, or need added adjustments to an existing spray dodger, we can work together to meet your needs.
Bimini
Biminis offer protection from the harsh summer sun. From fully fixed stainless frames, frames that fold aft while you do not require them, or a bimini that serves as the start point of a full cockpit enclosure to increase the amount of usable space during inclement weather or winter use of your boat, Fabric Solutions will work with you to custom build a bimini that meets your needs.
We can also offer replacement biminis or can supply and fit new custom frames to your boat.

Stackpack Boom Cover
A stackpack boom cover is a mainsail cover that is attached to your boom at all times.
It is supported by lazyjacks and makes for easy hoisting, reefing and stowing of the mainsail, especially if you're sailing short handed. A zip between the two sides make for an easy way to protect your sail at the end of your sailing session.
