Does anyone know of a canvas shop that pre manufactures dodgers ready to be installed

We are an unlikely customer for such a business, I doubt there are any specific to our boat. As for generic ones you need the dimensions that you want and to contact a custom bimini/canvas house.

I obtained my dodger from Genco Marine in Toronto, Canada. www.gencomarine.com.

They have a pattern for the Catalina 25 with pop top and having used mine for 2 seasons now am very happy with it. ($1150.00 cdn)
The front window zips out completely for use with the pop top or for ventilation.
They have also options available for it.
Awning that zips on to the stern end of dodger.($250.00)
A drop down door that zips on to the stern as well.($295.00 cdn)
A pop top enclosure.($500.00)
Note: prices are a couple of years old.
Most of the boats in our marina use these dodgers (Natty dodgers)which are very good quality.

Nice to see that I'm not the only C25 sailor on the prairies. Which lake are you sailing on?

We sail on Lake Diefenbaker in Saskatchewan.
Where do you sail?

we sailed on Shuswap this past summer and last winter out of Esquimalt.
Will probably move to Kootenay Lake or to Koocanusa next summer - and will make a pilgrimage out to Vancouver for two weeks in the spring.
I windsurfed Diefenbaker in the 80's. I've also windsurfed Wascana Lake.
We live in Calgary...so the big issue is driving to a lake.

Have met quite a few Calgary sailors over the years. Most drop in at Saskatchewan Landing Prov park, north of Swift Current and then sail down the lake. Lake is narrower at that end, but great sailing none the less. Most of the sailing comunity is at Elbow Harbour on East end of lake.
Would love to meet up with a fellow C25 sailor on the lake.

we will be attending a family reunion near Regina next summer - so I'll contact you as that approaches. Might tow the boat out there.

regards

Feel free to email me. Even if you do not bring the boat out, we have our boat floating in Elbow Harbour all summer, and it would be fun to get together for some sailing.
