    I am seeking some input as to what material anyone would recommend to use for the cover that goes from the bridge to the transom on a sportfishing boat. Someone suggested stamoid, any other choices?Very minimal shrinkage would be desired.
    Thanks for your help

    I've had good luck with Stamoid on my current and last boat...

    Stamoid, everything else is too heavy and sags or puts too much stress on the top track.
