I re-did the seating and bow cushions on my 88 Horizon....I don't think you can buy any of that stuff from FW anymore and it would cost a fortune if you could...what I did was have an upholstery shop redo the bow cushions....then I ordered new captains chairs and a rear seat (both actually for pontoon boats) from Overtons. It turned out cheaper to buy the new seating than to have that duplicated...my upholstery guy suggested that...and it came out great...I found seating that matched the original color scheme and the only modificatin I had to make to get the rear seat to fit was to trim the shelf on the coming panel where the rear seat fits. I had the same guy make me a nice bow and cockpit cover...the whole job was pretty expensive... but labor here is among the highest in the country. |

Probably no dice... As Lou stated, your best best is going to have a experienced upholstery shop do the work. Your next step may be craigslist or ebay. There have been a few sets of seats floating through e-bay. Have someone make you covers. The money will be well spent. I highly recommend Sumbrella material for the canvas. |
