Notes:
2005-current Formula® 27 PC Model Specific Details: There were many changes in 2006-2008, so please provide your PART NUMBERS from your canvas tags, and please measure your ZIPPER SIZE (#8 = 6 teeth/inch or #10=5 teeth/inch) (if your tags are missing, please contact Formula for 2006-2008 boats to get correct part numbers). We have the OEM canvas for this boat, but it is not in our online database yet, so please Email with Year, Make and Model for information and pricing. Type 316L stainless steel top frames. No Bow or Cockpit Covers available for Formula®, because Formula® made them all in house. Formula® originally offered the 2005-current 27 PC in Black, Mediterranean Blue Tweed, Cadet Grey, Green Tweed, Taupe (no longer available, Formula has replaced this with similar TOAST TWEED) or Persian Tweed (no longer available) Sunbrella® with SeaMark® vinyl lined waterproof Sunbrella® tops (Connector and Side Curtains are Silver) OR contact us for Pearlescent (white) Aqualon® (100) fabric.
Product Details: Boot cover to cover and protect Bimini-Top (Not included) when not in use. Some Bimini-Boots have the boat manufacturer logo (Chaparral or Formula for example) embroidered or silk screened in boat manufacturers specified thread color: typically black, white, silver or tan (gold), depending on the fabric color. Formula® uses Silver thread for their embroidered logo. If we do not have a logo available, the part is sold without the logo. If you are concerned about the logo color, please email and ask.
Formula® Factory Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Notes:A laser-engraved, Black Rubber Tag and a White Canvas Tag are sewn into every Ameritex® (we no longer make Taylor-Made®) original-equipment canvas or cover (a laser printed sticker is on each frame), so we need the P/N (Part Number) and DT date code from the Black Tag (or sticker), or the legible Part Numbers from the White Tag if you have them OR we can lookup 2010+ Formula® P/Ns in our system (just enter P/N 123456789 if you don't have any Part Numbers and make up a DT code between 2011 and 2019). Formula® Canvas Zipper Size:
#8 (6 teeth/inch) used up to early 2005 and from 2009 forward,
#10 (5 teeth/inch) used on most (not all) boats from the end of 2005 through the 2008 model year
(it is necessary to check your zipper size when ordering 2005-1008 canvas: simply measure the number of teeth over 2 inches and divide by 2 for accuracy)
. Boot Covers MAY have the Formula® logo embroidered in Silver, Gold, Black or White (Formula specified depending on fabric color). All Formula® frame bows and hardware are Type 316L Stainless Steel. All Formula® Tops are sewn with Gore(®) Tenara(®) Thread to avoid rotting. Most (NOT All) Formula® Tops have zippered frame (bow) pockets for easy installation. Formula® installed the snaps in the boats, canvas and covers at their factory, so we cannot install the canvas snaps for you because we do not have locations (see Canvas/Snap Installation to learn about installing snaps). Formula® made their factory OEM Bow, Cockpit and Mooring Covers in-house themselves, so we do NOT have them. We can only sell canvas and covers direct for Formula® boats over 2 years old. OEM canvas part number scheme: [xxxxx] identifies the canvas piece and [ccc] is the color code. Formula® Hull Identication Number (HIN) scheme is TNRsssssmbyy, where [yy] is the model year.
