Hi Guy's
I wonder if anyone can help, one of my son's (muppet) mates has jumped from the bedroom window onto the top of the canopy on my Norman 23, snapping both of the aluminium pram frames, I have a friend with a large steel fabricating business who offered to make replacements from stainless steel (the story gets better), one of his (muppet) employees has cut them up for scrap!! and chucked them out. I have been in touch with Wilsons who made the canopy and they said that without a template to work from that thay could make them,but they would not be exactly the same...So this is where NBAS comes in, has anyone reading got a Norman 23 with a Wilson frame and if so is there any chance of a template/copy/measurements. Bit of a long shot I know but you gotta try..
cheers

I suspect you are going to have problems finding this! The problem is that no fitting is standard as such. The only solution I think may be that whoever can make the frames will have to visit your boat!

Thanks guy's, if you have a Wilson canopy it will have a badge stitched into it, trouble I have is that Wilsons are near Birmingham and I am in Askham in Cumbria, I think I will go with Wilsons offer to make the frame blind and then trim it to fit, seems like my best option.
thanks
