In the past Jerry has built tops for major boat manufacturer North River (since bankrupted). Despite North River's financial woes, they built and sold a quality boat, and their decision to finish them with Jerry's tops is a testimony to his quality of work. In finding Jerry's I heard a variety of opinions about his and other top making businesses. Out of all the company names mentioned, no customers were so universally happy about both the price that they paid and the product that they got than those people who went to Jerry's. With that in mind, I took my boat to Jerry's to have him make a top, bow cover, seats and some custom upholstery. With the work done, I am as pleased and excited about the craftsmanship, quality and price as all those customers before me. I am sure if you visit Jerry's, your experience will be the same. Jerry does not have a website, but he can be contact ed at (503) 668-7132 for estimates, arranging a time to drop off your boat, and details about location.
