Striper,
I have almost the exact same boat as you. I believe my vinyl panels are original and sadly are in need replacement. Pretty sure although I might be wrong the factory used a 20 gauge vinyl.
Yes the 30 gauge would be able to make the bend/turn around to meet the side panel. I have used 40 gauge to make bends on panels on large flybridge boats. Not a problem to use the heavier gauge material. The heavier stuff usually last longer however it is harder to work with when sewing etc.
