On the 38, we need pieces over 6’ in length (if you want to follow the original pattern). UPS won’t ship sheets in that length and Mcmaster doesn’t sell it that long without freight shipping charges. James Taylor Delaney C&C 38 Oriental, NC

Seems a little less bendy than Plexiglas. I just went out to my shop and grabbed a piece and bent it to about a 2-3 foot radius. I had the Admiral take a pic which I'll send you off list. Dennis C.

You mention “stiff” in your description. I’m looking for a somewhat flexible material that can be used to replace the original Naugahyde covered luan panels in the headliner of my 38. These panels all seem to have a slight curvature to them. So I’m wondering if this might be a suitable material for the replacement panels?

I used a material from mcmaster.com to replace the removable overhead panels which access the winch bolts on Touche'. The material is strong, stiff, easy to work, looks nice and closely matches the original panels. I've used it in several other applications as well. It is smooth on one side and has a light texture, like Naugahyde, on the other. Very nice material. Anyway, having failed to find the invoice for the stuff in Touche's file and being completely uncertain which of mcmaster's many choices it was, I sent a small sample to mcmaster for identification. They quickly responded with this: Formable Chemical-Resistant Kydex Acrylic/PVC http://www.mcmaster.com/#8650K113 Good customer service, in my opinion. They said they were returning my sample. Sheesh! It was less than 2x2 inches. They could have tossed it. I intend to order some more as I'm nearly out. Dennis C.
