Looking to get isenglass installed on my boat to stay a little drier. Anyone know the best place/ person to do a quality install at a resonable price??

Check out Tim @ Stitch It! One of the best on Oahu...did a lot of work on installing Isenglass and upholstery for boats. Even Butch from Hobbietat uses him for his boat.

Thanks I'll check him out.

Hey Steve My Honda mech name is Craige at 551-2139.
Super mech. Great guy. Always has parts or gets them very fast and you back on the water on no time. Let him know I sent you.

Actually it is called "Stitch This" Tim did a great job for me and I priced around and he was the best priced also. He is located in the Waialae area, but will come to your boat.

Hey guys, I am glad that this post came up. I am looking into it also. Does anyone know the price of a complete wrap-around not including the Bimini?
Perfect for those in-the-dark molokai race crossings upseas.

Mahalo...

Tim with Stitch This is a friend of mine and my slip neighbor. His work is top notch and he comes to you, instead of you having to drag your boat to a shop. Best work on the island IMO. I had another one done on my old boat, and it was just OK, done by a guy in Mililani.

I can't imagine not having an enclosure on an exposed bridge, not only for comfort, but to save your electronics from all that salt!

I think Tim did the Magic's enclosure, if that tells you something about the caliber of his work!

Thanks for the pic Jeff. I will go check him out. Hey, i'm Zac's friend; we was fishing the makapuu ledge that one day. small island.

Oh, ok. Now I recognize the boat. That was some fast action, I think we had 13 pieces in a less than a couple hours, all trolling! The enclosure definitely helped that day, we were taking some mean spray and waves!
