: Make that a "maybe". They have been changing the fabric
: sections of many Walmarts and now are offering the clear vinyl
: in precut rolls of only 3-4 yards long, which would mean a seam,
: which is workable, but not the best way to go. it might be

: JoAnn fabrics and other fabric stores which sell upholstery
: materials would have longer rolls which are cut to length. not
: always as good a price, though. And they tend to have thinner
: material. The builder would want a minimum of 20 gauge or 20 mil
: material. Thicker stuff would be more durable, but harder to
: stretch and more expensive. I suppose 12 mil might work if

Hi Paul,

Ok to be honest I've not looked for it recently, I have an 8' model (1/2 scale) of a Yost kayak that'll be covered with it eventually, probably gonna get hung up in my office :)

You'll have to be careful with the boat regardless of the weight of the vinyl, it's unsupported plastic so any tear that starts will continue. It's not abrasion resistant and certainly not puncture resistant, looks cool though.
