What condition is the upholstry in? Sourcing new/old parts for the interior may be difficult. Can you have the bench seat reupholstered? It looks like two pieces. The seat and the back rest (mounted to the engine hatch). A marine upholsterer should be able to fabricate new vinyl covers. Hard to find parts for old boats. We have an 85' outrage and new seating was very expensive, so my wife made new covers for the
seats.
Hi Zipper, Thanks for the fast feedback. Looks like your wife did nice work!
I have a good marine upholsterer who's done nice work on my 33ft Formula. The Rage 15 seat (bottom) is complicated, with 3 beaded insets, and has cracked in numerous places. It would be a total do-over, which he estimated would be more than a replacement - if I can find one.
Hence, my inquiry to the forum. This pic is not my boat, but shows the stock design. Mine is all white, without the accent colors. Am hoping to pick one up from a reseller or someone who has a seat from a boat they are parting-out. Any other ideas are welcome.
