Need tubes for Zodiac YL380, Canada

[alphasports]

My 2001 YL380 finally needs a new set of tubes (original hypalon still on the boat is way past its prime, inner cells have collapsed so entire boat inflates/deflates from one valve), just wondering if anyone has suggestions for replacements in Canada? The Zodiac dealer has quoted $2800 and delivery "maybe" by next July. I can live with the price but I need them before that since July is a family vacation rental...9 mos seems an awfully long lead time even in these crazy days of supply chain issues. Looking for the neoprene/hypalon stuff, preferably not PVC. Thanks for any suggestions!

Your 2001 YL380DL likely came with PVC tubes, as Zodiac did not offer Hypalon tubes for the Yachtline series back then.

You can try Defender who is having a sale on tubes now. www.defender.com

I am pretty sure these are the ones that you would need
