I ran across a Carver 466 and measured from the flybridge hardtop to the waterline and its 16 feet 4 inches.
I have a couple of 17 ft bridges to go under on my run to Lake Champlain. So I will have to make sure her gas tanks and water tanks are full.

Where do I find canvas covers. I have a 46 foot carver motoryacht and I want to replace instrument panel cover on fly bridge and cover for captains chair.

I would hire a local canvas shop to come in, make patterns for what you need, and fabricate new ones from scratch. It's the only way to ensure you get a proper fit.

Probably won't find any already made that would fit tight. It's easy enough as a diy project to by sunbrella fabric and measure and sew depending on you coverage goal or you'll have a canvas guy come out and he will measure and custom make one.

You could measure from a straight-edge across the highest point on the hardtop (2x4, leveled) down to about 2-3 inches below the bottom paint line, or to the scum line, if present.
Do not use the Brochure figure, it is just a guide. My 350 AC draft, for instance, brochure: 31". As measured, 42"!
Measure carefully!
