Skin-on-Frame: Ballistic nylon source in US?

I'm surprised I can't find any white ballistic nylon anywhere! Everyone seems to only sell black!

I'm building some SOF kayaks with a few friends and thought that a bulk purchase might save a few bucks, rather than purchasing the precut length from Skin Boat School. Perhaps not, but I think it was worth the investigation considering how many yards we will need in the end.

Does anyone have a source for the 1050 ballistic nylon in the US?
