James has recently completed this job for a 2007 Sanger Ski boat, adding new custom upholstery and new brilliant snap-in carpet to match.  The results is stunning!  Here is now a 19yr + old boat with a whole new look!  Check out the results below:

We recently completed this job on an older Malibu, a 2007 Skier.  The decals were worn and faded, so the owner elected to take them off, which we did for them.  

The Skier was in need of some Gelcoat work too, so we took care of that and got the outside looking great again.  

Now all that was left was to brighten up the interior with new Upholstery, and new Snap-in Carpet.  The results are terrific, with an older boat now looking fresh and revitalized.  See for yourself!

Does your older boat need a refresh?  Update it with new color, decals, carpet (or even new SeaTek no slip flooring!) and upholstery.  Make it look as it did as it did when it was new, or update the look entirely!  Whatever you can dream, we can do!  Give us a call today and let's get you brushed up for Summer!

We've been so busy that we've been a bit slow in getting out pictures of our work, but here are a couple from a recent job we did on new upholstery for a 2013 Striper with an open bow.  

We'll have more of these to come!  

Does your vessel need new upholstery?  Flooring?  We do both carpet and SeaTek no slip flooring for any boat or yacht.  Our in-house upholstery shop is the best around, and we can do multi-colors (nearly anything you can imagine) AND custom stitching too! 

Give us a call today and let's get you on our schedule!

Recently we received a call from a very well known maker of outstanding fishing crafts, and they asked if we could accommodate a good customer of theirs with a custom top, incorporating the latest polycarbonate material for windows within the cover.  Of course we accepted the challenge!

The result was nothing short of stunning.  This stuff, called Tuffak, is amazing!  It's unbelievably clear, durable and flexible, and it's designed to stay that way.  

Check out the pictures of the finished product below!

As we told you a few months ago, we have relocated in a larger facility in the complex off Gateway Dr in Davis, CA.  Our upholstery shop has been especially busy, and we have been doing more jobs than ever before.  

To make sure we always offer "State of the Art" service and performance in our shop, we are continuing education for more intricate and skilled jobs, including special stitching and colors we haven't previously offered.  

Stay tuned for a big announcement when we are fully equipped for these new specialized jobs!

In the meantime, we have increased our visibility along the I-80 corridor between Vacaville and Sacramento for our shop in Dixon by putting up our new lighted freeway sign!  This beauty is visible for both East and Westbound directions and we couldn't be prouder!

Look for it the next time you are traveling by!  As always, our shop is located at 420 Gateway Dr, Suite D, in Dixon, CA.  The big sign on the freeway will help you find us!  

We recently received this very nice entry/feedback through our Contact page on the website.  We thought you might like to see it.

We are delighted that YOU are happy Tom, and gratified to know that what we set out to do, the very BEST for our clients, has worked out beautifully for you!  

Thanks so much for the kind words!

Need a Bimini top for your vessel?  We can produce a custom fit beauty for you that will add pizzazz and function to your rig!  Give us a call or visit our Contact page and let's talk about your boat and how we can help shade her, and you!

Just recently completed this 2005 Ski Nautique for a client and wanted to show it off!

We are able to replicate OEM-look upholstery (what it came with new) and even "jazz it up" a bit too.  In this case, we added a little color and stitching to show it off a touch better than new! 

​Check out the pics below.

Need an update on your vessel?  Give us a call and let's get you on our calendar!

The more we do (and we are very busy!) the more choices we are giving our clients.

Take this Cobalt 262 for example.  The interior had shown some wear for this owner and they were ready to replace their upholstery.  Well, little did they know that they could choose this amazing rich-looking Euro-style brown interior material and even a complementary SeaDek color to complete the new look!

Check out the pictures below and think about the possibilities for YOUR vessel!

This owner was headed for Lake Havasu Arizona for a trip that's been planned, but will be returning for even more upgrades when they come home.  More photos to come!

Even though we have all come through a crazy year with our changing environment for both business and health, we here at James Boat and Fiberglass (& Upholstery) Repair have remained busy!  

So, in order to improve our workload and customer experience, we've decided to expand!  The good news is, we've basically moved only a couple doors down from where we have been servicing and running our Upholstery Shop to a bigger double sized unit that will allow us to do even more. 

We are excited to announce our new address as 420 Gateway Dr, Suite D, Dixon, CA 95620

If you knew our previous shop, at 430 Gateway, you'll realize we are in the same complex, just a couple doors down.  But it gives us more than double the room and will make things better for us and for you.

So, come by and take a look!  

SMOKE DAMAGE??
We have had WAY more than our fair share of fires this season here in Northern CA, and many have been in or near areas with large lakes where boats are stored in marinas or moored nearby.  

While we have had smoke (and lots of it) within our neighborhoods all across the West, many folk's boats have had it even worse, some within very close proximity to fires and a TON of smoke.

Smoke can be devastating to a vessel. Once smoke gets into fabrics on a boat like vinyl, fabric, wood, rope and more, it's nearly impossible to get out. That means your boat will ALWAYS smell like smoke or you are tasked with replacement of the porous surfaces that "soaked up" those toxic fumes.

Not only does James Boat and Fiberglass Repair have a reputation that is unparalleled within the Insurance industry for repair and replacement of damaged boats, but our Upholstery shop and the fact we are a licensed boat accessory and repair facility allows us to be in the unique position of being able to assist and help with getting your smoke damaged boat back to it's original non-smokey self!

While we are at it, you can upgrade too. There are lots of ways to do that, as evidenced by photos in our gallery and prior blog posts (News tab) including upgrading your upholstery, adding accessories like towers or sound systems, adding SeaDek flooring or new carpet, freshening with new graphics and much more. 

​Or, just replace back to the original clean-smelling state that you had before the wildfires and smoke rolled in.

Either way, we are your smoke repair headquarters!

Call us today for an inspection and recommendation which will put your vessel on the road to recovery.
