Material source for home made tube replacement?

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a US source for Hypalon materiel and adhesive to make my own custom sponsons for my canoe and maybe to make replacement tubes for an old RIB?
Thanks

I’ve moved this to the North America specific forum so hopefully someone with local knowledge will see it!

Material, Pennel & Flipo's warehouse is in Daniel Island, South Carolina. They only sell material by the spool, which is about 1.5m by 70m+ length.

Tilley Inflatables seems to sell it out of the uk. But any raft repair shop would have it also.

Marine Connection

The Marine Connection in Ft Pierce FL has the left over Nautica fabric, they have lots of rolls of odd color fabric, you might be lucky to find a neutral color. They will cut to length.
Most of the fabric is Orca, some Avon and Aerazur . Last time I was there, they had a roll of baffle material.
They have a good supply of EPDM end cones and some handles.

Techno Rubber in Miami is a source for EPDM handles and rub strakes.

Defender has quarts of Poly Marine Adhesive.

Good luck...please post pictures.
