I have taken in a 16' Old Town skiff. (So far I've not seen a number, so don't know details of its origins, but if the deck decal is original it was probably built late 40's.) It needs new canvas. What weight should be used? I'm thinking something heavier than the usual #10 I use on canoes. Another thing, since giving up lead filler I've tried to use treated canvas as well as filler that has fungicide added, but I see that neither Bill Clements nor Rollin Thurlow stocks anything in the required 72" width that is both treated and heavier than #10. Do others have experience/guidance on this?
Thanks,
