Our Story

Decades of craftsmanship
on every seam

John Day's Mariner Canvas has been serving boaters in the Lafayette area and beyond for over 40 years. What started as a one-person operation out of a garage has grown into one of the most trusted names in marine canvas fabrication in Middle Tennessee.

Every piece we make is cut, sewn, and finished by hand in our Lafayette shop. We work with premium marine-grade fabrics from Sunbrella, Solution Dyed Acrylic, and other top manufacturers — materials chosen specifically for their ability to endure sun, salt, and the unpredictable Tennessee weather.
