Boat Covers

This is a couple that did some work for us that we can vouch for.  They made a boat cover which we're very pleased with and the quality and speed were super.  I told them I was so pleased with their work I'd give them a freebie with no kickback.  His name is Pen Chai  (really), he lives at 2492 Highwood Ave E in Maplewood with a phone number of 651-578-2952.  He made 3 trips to the marina for measuring and the cover was very reasonable.  He also makes motor covers, boat covers, biminis. enclosures, marine upholstery and also does canvas repairs.  Once again:
