Advise on new vinyl for my 36.

I too like the white, but I agree on keeping it clean cant do it. I think the white and grey looks pretty cool.

I like white with some color on the side panels, and maybe some color in the middle of the seat so the body oil's don't show so much. Moon did some of this when he redid his int.

I would like to see some pictures of that. That is exactly what I was thinking of doing.

I'm torn between a light gray and purple. For me I think too much purple is too much.... but I do like the way these look, I'm just not sure I would like it on my boat. I think it's too flashy for me.

What kind of boating do you do? Poker runs or pleasure boating?

If primarily pleasure boating, it's just my opinion, but I'd keep the rear bench once piece. I've been on a few boats with 3 back seats and if you have more than 5 total guests it gets cramped quickly and if you're anchored at the local watering hole people aren't comfortable.

If you're running offshore all the time and doing poker runs it's great!!!

If/when I redo my interior I'm going to add a removable seat back that will go in-between the two front bolsters! I've had a few runs where people had to stand in the middle.

I like both purples Rob. Honestly, the lighter one would be better as far as heat. When it's really hot, the dark purple is going to burn the back of some legs and backs for a few minutes!

Hey G my boat already has the 3 seperate seats in the back. If you look at post 2 the third picture that is my boat. You can somewhat see how the back seats are set up. You are 100% right they are awesome for one purpose and a pain for another. I never sit back there so it is less of a problem for me

I wish I would of took a good picture of my rear seat before I tore it all apart. Does anyone have one? Roger? Barb? any laying around.

Gotcha, that's cool. How about some fold up arm rests like the cigs have?? that would be different in an Apache!:cheers2:

Np thanks anyhow. I'll have to get with Roger and ask him.

That would be neat. I'm not sure I will have the time to do a redesign on the seat configuration. I actually don't care for the rear seats in the cig.

I am thinking of something like this. Seats would be purple and the sides a light graphite color. Everything else mostly white with some graphite and purple accents on the side panels also.

Bolsters would have Apache Logo embroidered on them.

 

[Tu Tama]

Which logo?

I think I like the blue one better, but i would have it on a white background with blue or graphite lettering.

 

[Tu Tama]

Well I am finally getting somewhere. I ended up buying these for cup holders, I am going to put them in the sides behind the bolsters, going to trim them with some LED's for lighting.

 

[Tu Tama]

Here are some of the pieces stitched up. I ended up going with white silver and purple. Most of the int will be white.

 

[Tu Tama]

More progress.

Looks great! I just ordered the silver carbon fiber vinyl in my new boat.
