TESTIMONIALS

Here's a great testament to what we do...all unsolicited and uncompensated. Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Susan,Good afternoon. I have been meaning to email you for awhile. I wanted to let you know we are quite happy with the Tripper XL cover. It was a relief having it on through the winter and now that the sun is bright and high in the sky. While I think my wife thought I was nuts at first, it’s a great way to protect our investment. My brother in law kind of made a joke about it at first, but in the end he’s jealous. Now all we have to do is get out on the water! Thanks again.Tim Hebert

Hi Sue, Just wanted to say thanks for a great job on my canoe cover (WeatherMax). It fits like a glove and looks great. Thanks again, Bill 5/6/10

..Susan: The cover arrived an hour ago. Dick already has it on his boat and he couldn't be happier. Says the fabric is perfect (WeatherMax) and the fit is great. He is a happy camper!!!! He will be recommending you to others I'm sure. Thanks again for your hard work and your excellent service. Bert

Bag arrived today. It is already on and it fits like a glove. If you need testimonial for any other prospective Vermont Dory owner I will be glad to provide it. Leaving the stern open was a great idea. It made putting the cover on so much easier, Right now I believe one more inch in depth at the stern would have been good because a little of the wood on the stern is insisting on poking itself into the sun but I believe I can correct this if I take a little time to take the boat off the frame it rests on to put the cover on without the interference the frames supports. Regardless, I am very impressed at how the cover fits. You are a miracle worker. To me taking someone else's measurements of a product, sight unseen, and create a cover that fits like this does is nothing short of a miracle. I will take the photos of the boat with and without the cover and e-mail them to you in a day or two. I only wish I had knew some folks who needed your talents. Should the opportunity arise I will not hesitate to sing your praises. .Thank you for your patience and sewing expertise.

June 15th, 2009 Susan Audette- Just to let you know, I finally covered the Seneca up with your bag you made and its perfect. I can tell it wasn't your first. Great job! Thank you very much. If you need a pic, let me know.

received the cover Thursday around 6:00pm and opened it out on the porch. My wife used to make all s and commented on the excellent workmanship – zigzag stitching and double faced at ends for greater strength. Very nice! Finally stopped raining, so I got to put it on the canoe today – great fit!

The canoe cover you have sent is simply perfect, fits snuggly and looks cool. I cannot understand how you were losing sleep with the attention to detail and workmanship you have put into my cover. But now that it is over I hope you are able to relax about it. I will send photos the next time I get to the workshop.

OCT. 24TH from Paul P. Got the package. It fits just fine. This is the second cover I've gotten from you. The first was for a J-200 some years back. As always, first class. Thank you very much.

and this one this summer is a doozy...Hi Sue:
The good news is that someone in Fla. liked your bag so much that they stole mine. That's the bad news, as well.
I have a Savage River XX C-! 18'6"
I would like the brightest, most outrageous happy colors in the world, like yellow, red and blue or a patch work of bright stuff.
Thx, Sue

Sept. 4 Sue, Realized I never wrote back and let you know the canoe bag fits WONDERFULLY! My Prism has never been happier. Thanks again for a great product.- Nate
,,.a repeat customer ...

I had no problem at all with the cover and my partner loved the racing stripes .... the clips I referred to are those attached to bungees going to the draw cord. My first cover (probably 1989) came with metal hooks and without bow and stern reinforcement where the cloth failures finally did
occur. I was pleased to find the top bow slit was still there and even a bit longer....I find it to be an important aid in pulling on the cover. The double paddle cover with the top draw string and handle straps was very nice and has also evolved over the years. Again, thanks for the well thought out products. Bill T.

Sue, The bags arrived today, they fit beautifully as always, the yellow, purple combo on top of my truck, is certainly a show stopper, I love dealing with you & the quality of your work is the greatest. Thanks always, David H

Sue,
The canoe cover arrived and is wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We made no mistake in having you make us the cover!! We really appreciate it and know that it will extend the life of the canoe. The green color is perfect! The fit is perfect!! I can't say enough good about it. Thank You! Thank You! We will definitely share where we got the cover for anyone who may be interested! Hoping your summer is a nice one. --Cathi

Many thanks for the canoe bag in forest green for my Wenonah Adirondack. I just got a chance to put it on, as we had a blizzard this past week with 30" of snow. The canoe cover fits perfectly, looks terrific, and I love the overall design. You have thought of everything - right down to the little "fly" in the bow, where a line can exit the cover to tie the canoe to the front grill of my Ford Ranger when car-topping.

Dear Bag Lady,
Just got our Northwind canoe cover yesterday (Gary Wi. order, but I'm the one that tracked you down). It is fabulous, fits like a glove, and definitely well worth the price!

Nothing else on my web search even looked remotely close. I was afraid I'd have to make one myself, but that would be reinventing the wheel, for me.

I am really happy with it, and I'm damn picky.
Thanks very much for a great product.

"Sue:
I have put the beautiful cover that you made on my Old Town canoe. It looks great and is designed so well that it both fit perfectly and was easy to slip over the canoe and fasten securely. I am also very grateful for your delivery to me as scheduled and well before my departure date from here. Great job! "

and...Dear Sue. As always I'm the envy of the boat ramp. Your products are great. These two bags fit perfectly. You might want to send me some brochures to hand out as I was mobbed by some surf-ski types who wanted bags for their boats. You are the best, don't ever change. Sincerely, Riley. from CA

and fits beautifully. We are delighted with it. Forest Green is a lot less visible in my yard than the Ultralight Kevlar Yellow was! ... You must add CLIPPER Canoes to the list of those manufacturers for whom you produce this excellent product. Thank again. Reg H. Victoria, B. C. Canada.
