White vinyl, Sharkskin or Sunbrella?
I have a Sunbrella canvas on my cabin cruiser to enclose the whole back end so I know what thats like, but what about the other two, anyone have Sharkskin? Gotta get some shade.

I Second Sunbrella.....kind of spendy, but I think it would be more durable over the long haul.

I have white vinyl. It's waterproof if you get caught in the rain, completely blocks the sun for shade and it's very inexpensive. i don't know how old it is since it came with the boat when I bought it in '03, but it seems durable. too.
