Seats - I really like them. I purchased them direct from Hydrostream a few years ago. Very comfortable, well made (no wood) and fit the boat real well.

The seats I have are really nice and low profile and seem to be plastic but the seat cushions had wood as the base and they were rotted really bad and holding water. I am not sure if I am going to just look for new seats or redo the ones I have now. Whatever is cheaper is the way I am going. I really like the venom seats though. Nice and low profile just the way I like em.

Just sent you a PM. I bought the seats as a package deal with other stuff (additional material etc). Material was a special order silver used in VanVurens Venom.

Thanks for the feedback and comments.

Oh yea... the 4 blade. Found it to be much smoother and less chine walk than the 3 blade I was using (a DAH SRX and also a Chopper). Also, much less cavitation/ventilation on the hole shot. Speed was only a few MPH slower than the three blades.

Larry, what's the pitch on your SRX? If you are not using it, would you consider selling? Would it fit my 1992 GT200 Johnny? :D Bill
