I am replacing the flybridge canvas and strataglass on my 1983 F-32. I am looking at either Sunbrella canvas or a good quality vinyl such as Regatta by Weblon. Can anybody give me the pros and cons of these two fabrics? I have no lower helm (came with built in wet bar where lower helm would have been) so the upper station is used in all weather conditions.
Also, can anyone tell me why my '83 is cream colored with burgandy hull stripes and lots of exterior teak and most other models are white with no hull stripes and little teak? '83's seem to be the only ones I see like this. Any info will be appreciated.

Hey neighbor - Sunbrella is the ticket .... Sargent upholstery in Jacksonville does great work - tell Debbie that Ross Johnson w/ RNR Marine sent you

while your looking at fabrics look at Stamoid our enclosure on our f 36 is 4 years old now and like new . the boat is used freguently up and down the Jersey coast in salt and have found it to be more waterproof than our last Sunbrella one .
