The Making Of A Tower Boot

About four to five times a year we get the opportunity to build tower boots. I have mentioned in other posts about tower boots, they are very time-consuming and require a lot of attention to detail. We have had this footage for about a year now and finally got around to putting it all together.

Take a minute and see what it takes to build one of these amazing pieces of art. You may notice the sewing may be stressing Cho out, it’s a very complicated puzzle!

This place is amazing ! They make such awesome covers and biminis, we’ve purchased several over the years. They take such good care of us when we accidentally rip something or bend a pole, often covering it under warranty even if was our fault. Highly recommend.

I have an RI 237 with a Sewlong Bimini, which is incredible. My son and wife were putting it up for their first time and didn’t get the material lined up correctly. The zipper popped and broke a few teeth. I randomly ran into Justin, the owner of Sewlong, and mentioned it to him. He had me bring it in, they fixed it, and it’s like new. Didn’t charge me, and just said “the next time you need a Bimini, we want you to buy it from us.” This is a company that makes a best in class product, and backs it up with great service. Good business, good people. Sewlong fan for life!

These guys are awesome. Not only do they make a killer product, but their customer service is stellar. I always worry with this kinda stuff if I ever need parts or support…I messed up the canopy one day when I forgot to put the tower down and caught it on the top of the garage. Excellent customer service. Over the phone, over text… such great communication and great people. Wow. Blown away. I can’t recommend them enough. Thanks for producing a great product and backing it up with world class support.

If you need a cover or shade for your boat this is the place. Their covers and shades are great and you can tell they stand behind the quality of everything they make. On the second day of ever using their Dropzone sunshade, we made the mistake of not locking it down. User error and it got a little messed up. They went above and beyond in helping getting it repaired and they showed without a doubt, they take pride in having their products work and look amazing. Thank you Mike for helping me out and everyone else I didn't meet who did the sewing and fabrication.

Selling embodies great customer service. It's a culture lost in most businesses today. They stand behind their products and build loyalty for life with their customers. I will refer everyone in need of their product with no hesitation.

Simply the best in quality and customer service, not just for boat covers and their houseboat couch cushions, which I have used them for, but for any company I have interacted with. They stand behind their products and go above and beyond.

Brandon Brandt

SewLong is absolutely the best for covers and frames. Mike, Clint, Justin and the whole team have gone above and beyond to help me with my Bimini Cover and frame. They are knowledgeable, skilled, and most importantly, they care about their customers. I can’t say enough great things about SewLong. Look no further for your boat cover or Bimini top needs. SewLong will take care of you.

Sewlong is a great company to work with. Great quality work and the covers made are the best. I had a few holes in my cover and took to them (Mike) at 11:00AM on Thursday and he said that hopefully would be done by Friday. He called me a at 3:00 that same day and said it was done. Their warranty is unbelievable. Don't go anywhere else.

I have used and trusted SewLong since 2014 with all of my boats. They are wonderful to work with and go out of their way to take care of their clientele unlike any of their competitors! I highly recommend them to everyone in the boating industry!

Excellence in Sevice!! Needing a few snaps on my boat cover. They did it while I waited and didn’t even charge me for it. These guys know how to get a return customer.

They produce a great product for my boat. Really good price. When my Bimini top, and my boat cover needed repair due to my fault, They repaired it fast and for a very minimal charge.

I purchased a new Bimini top with brackets from my local boat shop for my 2017 Centurion Ri237 a week ago and went to install. All was good until I tried to get the top over my tower light. I contacted sewlong and had a reply within a couple min that my top was manufactured incorrectly and they would send a new top out as soon as they verify the ones they had were correct. I received my new top and installed without issue. This was by far the best customer service experience I have had in a very long time. Thanks Sewlong for making this inconvenience a good experience.

Sewlong, idk what to say! They have taken such great care of me. Bent my entire frame by leaving the Bimini up mistakenly. Sent pics they got me the parts I needed in an amazing time frame. Helped me along with some adjustments to get it all squared away. I’ll never own a boat without a SEWLONG. They are the best on the market hands down and customer service has exceeded in every way! Thank y’all so much!

Got a shade sail for my boat and it is amazing! Its so nice to put up on super hot days while hanging out or surfing. It is also the easiest thing to set up and take down. I can put it up in less than a minute. But most importantly to me is that SewLong is so easy to work with and if you ever have questions or concerns you can call and get help immediately. This is definitely the type of people you want to do business with and can trust to take care of you!

Sewlong has been so generous to help me with getting my purchases right. I brought in a bimini that was damaged and they spent time fixing it at no charge. What a great gesture to gain my loyalty! These guys are the best!!

I got a custom, Bimini and two-piece snap on boat cover from sewlong Best fitting boat cover I’ve ever had really nice and tight.material Seems like it’s gonna last my lifetime When the clips, that hold the folding Bimini together when it’s down, I broke one and I called and asked to order a couple new ones they were so nice and mailed them for free. Will definitely do business with these guys Again thank you Mike

I needed a custom sling with handles to carry a heavy music amp to gigs - through doorways, up and down stairs, etc. SewLong took my crude idea and made a sturdy, functional and nice looking sling. They even refined the original design to make it easier to carry. Quick turnaround and reasonable price.

The best service I have ever received. Above and beyond my expectations. Hats off to Mike and Justin for running a top notch company.

As usual, Sew Long went above and beyond for customer service! I have a bimini on my boat that a previous owner had Sew Long build 9 years ago. So, with wear and tear, it needed a new zipper. Sew Long repaired the zippers and a small tear, added some velcro for better functional alignment, and didnt even charge for any of it! They stand by their product. Amazing customer service! Thank you!

This place rocks! Justin, Becca and Mike go above and beyond every time I've been in. The quality of the product, craftsmanship and customer service set them apart. What a pleasure it is to do business with Sew Long. Oh yeah, their logo is pretty cool too.

Becca was amazing. She had the chance to up-sell me (and I was open to it). She opted for the most simple solution and it turned out great My experience could not have been better

Great customer service and a quality product. We had a little trouble with the fit at first, but sewlong was incredibly responsive, and even made an incredible new cover that fit our speakers perfect. The material was soft and had just a slight stretch to get up and over the speakers perfectly. The zipper was in just the right spot making for a smooth zip over the head of the Centurion cover fire speakers. Great job sewlong!

SewLong does amazing work! I came to them with a last minute request and not only did they agree to it, but they finished it early and its exactly what I had asked for! I highly recommend SewLong for all your boat cover and bimini needs! Thank you SewLong for your excellent quick work and generosity!

The repair work was done well and promptly! Not to mention the boat cover hole I have no idea where it went and no indication there was ever a tear. Amazing work! Clint and Becca were both incredibly helpful, in addition to helping me find a few parts for my Bimini. Thank you! Great people over here!
