the problem ive seen although seamark is a great canvas it dosent breath as im sure you know if you don't clean it regularly it grows mold spots I know my old trawlers did and about 5 years is normal in new England for the poly thread to fail you could resew it with the same or if you plan to keep the boat spend a bit more for the good thread with solrfix is. a ptfe thread I use it I like it much better then tenara thread it sew much smoother. as for your window strataglas may be a bit mich but it is super clear I use no less then a 40 guage double polished vinyl myself

oh btw as you may figure I am a canvasser upholsterer
just sondering did they use the seamark for the aft curtain also it isn't recommended by seamark as you need some breathable canvas on the boat
