Anyone have a good source for new interior curtains in the salon & aft cabin of our tri-cabin?

My wife went to sears and bought curtains for our salon (saloon) and dinette measured and hemmed them up. We sewed the old button hangers on the new curtains. Turned out ok. We bought the cutains that block the light and heat, and they work great. When we are at our marina the sun beats thru the sliding glass doors and with the curtains closed and the a/c on it works just great.

I agree that you need to make sure you get the ones with that block heat and sun. Otherwise, your AC unit will not be able to keep up. I also always try and dock in a direction that allows the canopy to shade as much as possible.

Lowes, hemmed them up also, work great.

Other tan new carpet in 2003, my cabin interior is still factory original. Burgandy & grey with matching curtains which have held up surprisingly well for a nearly 30 year old boat.

Please post photos so we can get some fresh ideas,
