Yep my dad told me when I got my first dirt bike if you break it you fix it .So it kind goes along with if you cant aford it you might have to build it :lol: . So I have been checking sewwing machines on ebay there only 175$ for agood one .Like I said I payed 1400$ for iterior work last year. I think total cost of material was like 350 .So the gal that did it for me got paid major $$ and it only took her a couple days .I wish I made 400-500 a day. Anyway keep up the good work you"ll love your boat more knowing you restored it not some shop .And and sonn you"ll be :boating: with all those beautiful Texas ladys :D man I love the gals in Texas . Justgot of ebay and there is a guy in Dallas that seems to be reasonable the listing #is 250753266603 these are folding seat but I bet he does other stuff to . We should get ahold of him and see if he would give discount for mulitiple interiors as I no there are a few of us out there . If I could get it all stitched I can recover it just send old vynl for patterns and have him send back new that would be sweet cause he seems reasonablely priced.

For any performance boat, you kinda want seats with bolsters to hold you in place if the boat gets out of hand. Last thing you want is to get thrown out of a seat. Even if your theathered it's a dangerous situation. I've had it happen in a different boat before. Just my 2 cents. :mrgreen:

Cricket post some pics of your boat seats everybody always leave interior out and we always see the core and what not how about it you guys that have your boat in the garage and not covered .Lets see some interior pics. I agree about seats needing to hold you in but my seats sit so close to floor how will a bolster seat work :?:

Rut, what seat is that? #wd739ls? pic?

AFR, those look good. is the white seat the "big boy" or does that seat come in the 3 sizes? i like the style with the higher "arms".

ive been calling around locally to see what getting one covered would cost me but being sat havent accomplished much, i already have the vinyl just need foam and to be sewn. other option is to find complete seats online. prolly go with whick ever is most economical.

The seat #wd739ls is on wiseseats.com it is 349$ to much Afr seats are 225$ for one like the red and white stripe one plus shipping .Im leaning that way might just fly down to Fl pick them up in rental car and drive home I dont work in the winter .And I here they dont have much snow there and I could look up some old friends since I used to live there. Who knows .
