I was tremendously impressed with the stuff this company makes

http://www.majilite.com/

which was used on the Maryland Research vessel. It looks like vinyl or
Naugahyde but they stretched it around shapes and corners I couldn't believe
with no sign of thinning or strain. It's so tough that they don't try to
use utility knives to cut it (company is also involved with bullet proof
materials) and use special scissors. The pilothouse interior and console
top were all done with it and it looks like a million dollars, (well four
milllion actually).

BTW I was amused to see Neal reveal his ignorance again. My 1980 soft
headliner still looks great. Talk about entry level boats, Coronado 27?
