can anyone tell me official name of the common tan tweed color used in 1996 - I have been searching the available colors but not very sure - seems to be black and tan threads- thank you- Ed

Quite possibly Linen Tweed (used on the 1996 270 and 290 - you did not mention the model)

If it's your 1997 280SS then this would have been the factory color.

Toast Tweed was also a popular Sea Ray color but I did not see that as original.

If it was custom it could be anything.
If you happen to have any original labels on any of the pieces they may include color codes.

Linen tweed was one of the samples but not very representative on the computer- at this point 26 years later- anything close will do for a repair to what was a nice canvas until a mouse decide to have lunch- thank you for your help- Ed

Not a problem!

If it's a large repair then you may also want to consider ordering factory replacement panels (we can help you with that). If it's a small repair you should be able to get a small amount by the yard. You can probably pick it up locally or a local shop may have it on hand but if not we can get it for you.

Keep in mind that while Sunbrella is very good it may not be an exact match 26 years later.

it is definitely linen tweed- by the way -Nice craft- thank you- Ed
 
Didn't see your second response- I have to make a couple of calls but I certainly would entertain you help- how would we communicate- still a newbie on this site - don't want to break any protocols--Ed
