Hi chaps. My boat has been identified as a Shakespeare 13'6" V Sportsman. I am desperate to try and find a company who might be able to manufacture a bespoke canopy which would allow us to use the boat in all weathers. Does anyone know any potential suppliers who might be worth approaching? I did wonder whether a company who makes covers for sportscars might be the way to go? Any ideas?
Thanks
Simon

Simmonds fitted from new with what, I believe, is the only running factory marinised Daimler 2.5 litre V8 (as fitted to the Daimler SP 250) in the UK. Please let me know if you find another! Believed to be Norman Buckley's race boat.

Thanks for the mention, Simon!
We can do this, no problem - and hopefully rather better than the one shown in the photo!
Send me a PM to discuss further.

Re: Custom Canopy - suppliers?
Ive been wondering about a canopy but cant think of a way to make it look good and still have room inside to move . It would be just to get under cover if caught out in the rain on a day out rather than a perminant cover .
