The differences in workmanship are very noticeable.
Ship shape sews sippers in so that the top can be removed from the ribs should the need for repair come up. Mine does not have this nor was that option presented.
They also roll the fabric over so the zippers are sewed onto doubled up fabric. My tops and sides do not have this.
The work done on my outlaw although it looks good, when you compare the two is not even close to the quality of Ship Shape both in fit & finish. Also Village canvas did not sew a zipper on the rear for a future aft curtain which I told them before the job was done that I would eventually be having made.
In a nut shell I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have quality work done on their boat.

I had exactly the opposite experience with Ship Shape. I would not recommend them to anyone and I would never use them again. I had them build an entire camper top for my boat In the fall of 06 and the workmanship Is very poor.
Each panel Is way too big so they buckle and every stitched seam around the windows Leak bad. i get so much water In the boat that the bilge pump runs to drain It out. She left us high and (Not so dry) after many complaints from us.
Big thumbs down on that business folks.
