Check with the local Marine stores. If they do any repairs, they may carry some of the stuff. Some of those Jet Skeet sellers may have some too, though I'd spend my money elsewhere. There is a West Marine here where I live, but they only carry West System products. And the cloth is very limited. I also found a local company theat installs custom hardwood floors and other high-end woodwork. They could order some for me, but they did not stock it. Prices are generally better through mail order. I used RAKA and would recommend it...nice to deal with and the stuff works good, so far as I can tell, and the price is very attractive.
