The right fabric Choosing the right fabric depends, of course, on the clients' priorities and the region in which they use their vessel. "We use everything from Sunbrella® to WeatherMAX® on small boats where the customers want color to Stamoid® Light, Stamoid Top and even Stamoid Précontraint® for larger, more permanent shade with rigging and turnbuckles," Erickson says. Pfromm says BMA Canvas primarily uses Sunbrella but a small percentage of clients want PVC-coated polyester (Stamoid) or mesh (Phifertex®). "A mesh fabric is a necessary option if the user will leave it up unattended during periods of overnight dew or a spotty rain shower," he says. The distinctive look of a sunfly complements the lines of this vessel, pleasing owners Morgan Fudge and Anne Kinsman. Photo: BMA Canvas.
