Good Afternoon all, just joined as i am a new boat owner to my 1981 Carver Santa Cruz 2866. Love the boat, in excellent shape but i am trying to see where i can find some small misc. things like exterior front windshield covers, flybridge cover.
Not sure if i am better off having stuff like that made from a local shop. Any help pointed in the right direction to look will be great.

Welcome aboard!!

That kind of stuff is best made at a local shop. Try to get it done in the "off season" if you can. You might save a few $$ but the hassle alone would probably be worth it. When you try and get it done during the busy season there are always delays.

There are several other folks on here with the Santa Cruz models, so you're in good company!

Welcome yeah you'll have to get that kind of stuff made unless your really lucky and find it on ebay or something but then it may or may not fit like you think or could have shrunk over the years.

Welcome aboard. Definitely need to be made at a local shop. Easy to get done, plus you can add windows or sun roof if you want. Even if you find something on Ebay, it will probably not fit the way you want, or will be worn out! 8-) er
