I own a 1993 Catalina 30 foot tall rig. I am looking for a dodger. Can anyone advise me where to find one? Thank you, Pride

Several Ways to Tackle this Pride

I have a 2004 387 that has the Dodger, Bimini, and connector that came with it from the factory in Florida.

It has an tag sewn on it with the name of the company and a phone number. I can pick up that number tomorrow and e-mail it to you and I would suggest that you could call them and give them the make, model and year of manufacture and see if they have what you desire.

You could go to the Sailrite website and hunt around and see if they have a set of plans for one and if you are talented enough make it.

You could see if you can locate someone in your locality that would make one for you. Figure about $100 per foot to get a canvas or sail maker to do it for you. This is based upon an assumption that you have the Stainless Steel already and they can use that. Also, are the snaps in place to fasten it to?

You could contact the manufacturer of your boat and ask them who made the canvas for them back in 1993.

You could contact the Catalina Owners Association and ask them.

Good luck, Tom

Your best bet is to find a local canvass maker who has made dodgers for sailboats. Ask around your marina and look at the workmanship and designs. With a local shop, you may pay a little more, but the product will fit your boat, and you can easily carp at them if it doesn't!

The Catalina factory dodgers / biminis are manufactured by JSI in St Petersburg FL. Their web site is www.newjsi.com, and they do make after market canvass

I checked on this site (Catalina Owners.com) and didn't find dodgers, but did find that they sell biminis (and you will probably want one of those too).
