You can! It would be worth it just for the adventure, as the Erie Canal could take you over to Oswego, across Lake Ontario to Trenton and Mile '0' of the Trent Severn Waterway. Then it's a quick, five day run up to Lake Simcoe and over to CYT. I'm sure Craig would be happy to help you dock at his shop ;-) What an awesome voyage that would be!! Cheers, Paul.
Absolutely a nice canvas and nice speciell features to make the canvas more safe( from rain etc) and easier to handle. Great Job from the maker. I love it.
Just got my Sea Ray 330 few days ago! thanks for all the videos and ideas! this one will for sure come handy as im going to do something simmilar on mine! Thanks!
Excellent series on the re-canvasing of the new Boogaboo. I really like the features that they incorporate into their work.... just a bit of common sense and experience goes along way. Cheers
Craig does an excellent job. He put my new top on a month ago and I love it. He did the same modifications that he did on your boat.Craig!!!! i want my $250.00 rebate...lol
Happy Friday Paul. I'm very excited, thanks to you I called Craig at Canadian Yacht Tops this week, and booked in my boat for a new custom mooring top on the week of the March Break. He will be making a template and fabricating a new button/snap top. We can't wait to see what this mystro is going to create. Very much worth hauling it a couple of hours up the marina. Hopefully you and your lovely anchor girl had a wonderful Valentine's day and a great long weekend. Cheers Brett
Anybody that calls his wife "Anchor Girl" and gets away with it is thumbs up in my book. :-) Your videos are very informative as I am considering a cruiser (after being a trailer boater for the past 24 years.) Thanks for your videos!
After nearly 40 years together, I've gotten away with a lot ;-) Happy to hear you are finding my #boating videos informative - and hopefully entertaining, as well. As we speak, I'm uploading my latest production, which will hopefully give you some insight on how to steer a #boat using only the shifters and throttle. Cheers, Paul.
your canvas looks excellent makes me wish I lived in Canada just so I could go use Canadian yacht tops this year but I love the idea of the frown window openings I'm going to have to have my canvas lady do the same thing and just like one of the other comments a little Common Sense does go a long way. congratulations hitting 5000. you should do a giveaway someday have some flags made up four other boat owners that say"i follow Boogaboo". just an idea I'm going to go enjoy my hot summer day that just arrived and do the same thing crack a beer relax on the boat thanks for the awesome video cheers
+Adam Ford Happy to help out! And yes, I'm working on some future giveaways and trying for more discounts from other #boating suppliers, so stay tuned... And enjoy that cold one 🍻
Nice job on the canvas! With in the next month or so we're replacing our canvas to the camper canvas. We have West Coast Canvas who's also a top notch guy we're using. He's done my prior boats and soooo satisfied when you get quality work done right! He's a little more then the others but it's well worth it. We are looking at cockpit rug replacement as well. Our guy showed a descent rug, forgot the name but it's also wine resistant which is a ++. Your rug looks awesome with the canvas!!! Way to go! Just got back from a campin trip and headed to the boat this weekend for 3 days! Your vid got me energized!!
+RNdlp RNdlp Yes, the new carpet is one more thing g to make it feel 'clean'. As I alluded to in the video, the old one was at the end of its life cycle and semi permanently stuck to the deck. I had to scrape and clean it off with laquor thinners! I, too am gonna try to sneak out Thursday evening and make it a three day weekend. But don't tell anyone 😉
BoatsBeachesAndBars what editing program do you use? I'm still tryin to find the time to get this video out. I'll do a quick one and try to get it out today.
I've been using Sony Vegas for years. Does all I need it to do. There are more sophisticated programs out there, but like the stick in the mud I am, I'm happy with it. Nice looking new toy, BTW :-)
A happy First Mate/Anchor Girl makes for a happy captain. Hey, maybe some day we'll talk you into heading over to the light side, or buying a sailboat.
Exemplary customer service just drips from this gentleman and his company. Wish I were near. But who knows what the LORD holds? I can only hope - which "doesn't disappoint." Blessins...
I'm having a difficult time getting the chronology worked out. Wish you had numbered them so I can get up to date. I'll survive, of course, but with my OCD, not being able to organize them for viewing is making me a little crazy.
+Marc Toews You're most welcome! The next one - actually, the one after that - is pretty nice as well. The next one is just a boring How To video from when I rebuilt the water pump on our Westerbeke generator. But the one after has some sweet shots of me planing accross a dead flat calm lake!
Great job.........you've created another room.....I don't want you using those straps on anchor girl ....it's not the red room....lol.....looks great guys.
Spoke to Craig this afternoon :) Dropping off the front portion of our camper top. Plastics are worn and are way over due! I can't even see through them!!!
Sure, a heat gun would work if they're just vinyl lettering. If they are, you might also be able to use a stripe removal tool like I used this Spring to remove the striping on our boat; ua-cam.com/video/FTFrQvsEG-I/v-deo.html

Wow !!! I need Greg to the rescue of my worn down top... OK..!? so a guys with a small cuddy with full camper top ;) ??, nevermind a sundancer size boogabooster, what would be an average price to have it re done. ??? Just looking for ideas....
+Cruising With Ranger Tug Wanderer Nothing strange about it, we chose to go that way, to give the top some contrast. Doing everything in one colour would have made it look too monochromatic. Bottom line, Anchor Girl is happy 😀
I do upholstery and I have some questions. 1) Why black for the zipper color instead of white or tan? 2) Why not hide the zippers with the beige material and a mating bound strip? 3) And why isn't there outer facing on the transom door? They just sewed through the clear to the inside facing. It's A GREAT job but some choices have me scratching my head.
I would LOVE to get my boat over from Tonnawanda, NY to CYTops!!! Definitely "canvas engineering!" Damn well thought out! Love it!

Much more to come!!

Good to hear that, Brett! I'm sure Craig and his team will make you something to be proud of. Be sure to say Hi to him from us :-)

Great job. After looking at your new canvas, now I have to make some changes on mine. Thanks for the ideas.

New canvas top and a new carpet as well . Looks like a brand new boat . Cool. Now for a video on heading back to home port
+Henry Rodgers You read my mind 😉

Sailboat? Didn't we have this conversation already? Anchor Girl would pitch over the side on the first (attempted) voyage ;-)

What an awesome shop.
Craig and his team do great work 👍

Wow that's a really cool video . Thanks !

Anchor girl rocks !!!
Great job.........you've created another room.....I don't want you using those straps on anchor girl ....it's not the red room....lol.....looks great guys.
Thanks John!
Look for a shout out in one of my upcoming videos. . . Fair warning ;-)
Looks awesome!
+FITZY They did a great job!
Spoke to Craig this afternoon :)
Dropping off the front portion of our camper top. Plastics are worn and are way over due!
I can't even see through them!!!
Love your channel. What's the best way to get old boat numbers off? Heat gun?
Sure, a heat gun would work if they're just vinyl lettering. If they are, you might also be able to use a stripe removal tool like I used this Spring to remove the striping on our boat; ua-cam.com/video/FTFrQvsEG-I/v-deo.html
@BoatingWithBoogaboo thanks. Love your Channel by the way!
Awesome! Thanks.
Bet that set you back a pretty penny!!

+polskinurek Give him a shout, or send him an email. I'm sure Craig can give you a close, ballpark figure for your #boat...
Eisenglass or Stratoglass?
Strange the zipper colour is not the same as the canvas colour.
+Cruising With Ranger Tug Wanderer Nothing strange about it, we chose to go that way, to give the top some contrast. Doing everything in one colour would have made it look too monochromatic.
Bottom line, Anchor Girl is happy 😀
I do upholstery and I have some questions. 1) Why black for the zipper color instead of white or tan? 2) Why not hide the zippers with the beige material and a mating bound strip? 3) And why isn't there outer facing on the transom door? They just sewed through the clear to the inside facing. It's A GREAT job but some choices have me scratching my head.
Best to contact the canvas shop directly for technical questions.
@@BoatingWithBoogaboo Did you choose to go with black zippers everywhere? The customer is in charge, and if you're happy I'm happy.
Whats something like thay cost like $5000
Yes, very close to that for an entire new canvas top like we got.
I hate canvas
