If a customer wants
canvas on their boat that fits "like a tailored suit," they
should come to Boats Inc.'s Canvas Shop. Paul Stiephaudt, a longtime employee
with the company, is outstanding in the field of designing and producing
custom canvas work. 
After studying marine diesel mechanics and construction equipment repair
at Southeast Tech in Groton, CT Paul became an apprentice at Boats Inc.
in June 1992.
Paul defines himself as having an artistic bend, in addition to his formal
training. He says he is glad he "fell into" canvas work, as
it allows him to exercise a certain amount of artistic freedom and employ
skills he no doubt inherited from both his grandfathers, one a mechanic,
the other a tailor of men's clothing.
He enjoys the customers
and takes considerable pride that boaters are willing to take his advice
about the best design or materials for their needs.
To provide the best service, Paul is always looking for new ideas and ways
to further improve the products he offers. He can provide any canvas item or service for powerboats,
from simple repairs to a full customized enclosure.
Paul can be reached at the Boats Inc. canvas shop at (860) 739-6768.
