all kinds of stuff sent to a Feed & Seed store in Calais, Maine and
the builder would pick it up and drive home. Piece of cake. He also
had a customs broker who handled the tricky bits. Didn't hurt a bit.
By all means, drive a little. Save a lot.

Susan, Had I known you were there, I'd have definitely stopped by and had a
"pint", even though I'm 600 miles away.

Just a suggestion. Having seen these people at St. Michaels, Md., thought
they might be a source. Familiar with customs, hope you can sneak across
border with product.

Don't really know, but have you tried Noah's? Don't have catalogue in hand,

was in New Rochelle. When they decamped to Waterford, the store in New
Rochelle, NY remained open under a different, but similar, name. I
believe that the Waterford operation is the one you want for Xynole. I
have their catalog on my coffee table, at present.
The Waterford store is annoying to drive to, even if you are dashing
through Waterford on I-95 since it is well away from the highway.

Yes, Defender is the only source. I knew that prior to construction.
I also made the mistake of not using it. Bummer! The only regret I
have as far as what went into the boat.
Be brave. Bite the bullet. Buy the xynole from Defender and be glad
you did. Buy a lot of epoxy too. Xynole needs a lot of epoxy.

You have to be prepared to have stuff shipped in. It would be nice if
the Big Orange Box store was named Boat Depot and they stocked real
marine plywood, black locust, white cedar, Kirby's paint, C.P.E.S.,
xynole, etc. etc. It isn't and shipping is a fact of life with boat
building materials. Heck, my plywood was made from logs shipped from
Africa to Greece. The plywood was shipped from Greece to the East
Coast where it was transfered to Maine and my builder drove down from
New Brunswick to get it. A pain in the Kazoo, but worth every penny.
Look on the brightside: You have A&M Wood and Noah's and you aren't
paying a rediculous tariff on red and yellow cedar and doug-fir. I
think you have the better deal.

Robert --
Have you tried calling Noah's and asking them if they'll order some
for you? They really ought to stock it. They claim they carry "hard to
find fiberglass" -- well . . . !
www.noahsmarine.com
Also, try Googling "Dynel," which is a similar polyester fabric. Might
turn up a few other options.

I did a search a couple of years ago, Defender was the only one I
found. I think Reuel Parker said they were the only source.
If you find someone, be sure to post it! Maybe you could find some
others to split the cost of an order with you?

Hi, Everyone,
would anyone know of a Canadian supplier for Xynole
Polyester Fabric? I've googled the name and there isn't much out
there .
The closest supplier I've found is
http://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1|10918|16458|309346&id=16176
and they're in New Rochelle, NY. I would be happy to order from them
but the international shipping really eats up the dollars. Hence,
looking for the Canadian Supplier.
