Pre Made Dodger for Hunter 34

[manuevers]

I have a 1986 Hunter 34. Apparently it had a dodger at some point but when I bought it, it had neither the frame or the canvas. I got a estimate for a custom dodger with both the frame and canvas. As you can guess it was rather expensive.

Does anyone make pre-made dodgers for a Hunter 34?

You can purchase an east coast dodger from JSI for ~$1300. its oversized compared to the standard dodgers and has a rain deflector. Contact Sandra Goeller at Sandra@newjsi.com (727) 577-3220 or 1-800-652-4914 in St Petersburg, FL. If you do please contact me at sjpenny5@gmail.com and I can provide photos of my east coast dodger installation and recommendations on installation and design prior to purchase to improve installation. I upgraded from Sunbrella Plus to Seamark fabric and purchased Strataglass window vinyl.

Be sure when you decide on a dodger that you look at ALL of the potential features that you may want ahead of time.

Things like:
Side and aft rails.
Stainless steel frame
All panels removeable
Full support without tension straps
leather reinforcement on forward & aft edge to prevent abrasion
Sunbrella Plus
etc.

If these things are important to you, it may be less expensive to have one made. On the west (left) coast you would be looking at something around $3,500 for a custom, high quality unit.
