AMEN but not likely at allHinges to retrofit cushions so they flip up?
That’s what I’m saying!!!!! Where’s the love?Wait a minute...Will let's all of Twitterverse know the nature of the new products but won't share it with us here?
This is so true. I bought the Lateral Thrusters on the recent group buy. My wife immediately commandeered the catalog that came with it and started ordering some of the optional seadeck pieces. We're now on our second order of (even more) seadeck pieces, and she's waiting (impatiently) for them to arrive. Somehow Jet Boat Pilot figured out how to tap into the female jet boat aftermarket. Or created one. Either way, it's marketing genius.I just installed a bunch of optional seadeck pieces that were not available when I first got my boat. Wow they are great. The wife loves it and has no issue with the money spent on that. I am sure wives love lateral thrusters as well (get your mind out of the gutter). The key is your wife must love the boat too and these products help with that.

I think at that point it's a fire hose. Lol!A 10,000 rpm water gun?...... hell im in too!
It would require entirely new/different upholstery. At least for a 19’ series boat because the stock upholstery wedges in place of the side and back support upholstery/cushions. This is why the new 19’ boats with hinges have completely redesigned the upholstery so that it could swivel up without having to sort of twist the old style upholstery out of the way and visa versa when you want to put the cushion back on the storage. Basically what I’m saying is it would cost a lot of money. Maybe not on all Yamaha models as I think the way the upholstery locks in place is different on models and years but for sure it would require an extensive kit to retrofit a 2018 and older 19’ boat to have hinges. I’ve looked into this and don’t see a way to do it’s without changing how the cushions wedge in place.Hinges to retrofit cushions so they flip up?
Depends on how far through system they are.Can’t you look up patents that have been filed?
