T&T: prices for a custom dinghy cover

[LA Licata]

Scott,

Wow!

I had mine made for 6 hours labor by a local sail maker in Chicago. I  
provided the material.

It was the same material that is used on the sides of trucks.

Lasted years, more durable and the fabric was cheaper than sunbrella.

I had the sail maker just sew in a heavy line around the edge and  
used that to cover the tender.

Does $1,300 for a Sunbrella Dinghy cover sound exorbitant to you?  The
tender is a 10.5 foot AB with a tiller Yamaha on the stern.  The  
quote just
sounded a bit high to me.  Someone mentioned buying the fabric and  
having a
cover made in Mexico.  I hate to export a job but I also hate to pay  
2 or 3
times what it would cost if I just wait a few months.
