Sometimes it's cheaper to just buy new seats. https://www.bassboatseats.com/
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

Maybe I'm too picky. But , I have the shop I work at redoing my seats in my Skeeter. They aren't worn, just want something different.
I am having my seats done in red ultra leather boarders with red carbon fiber diamond pleated centers. My guy doing them has only done the rear deck folding seat and I'm already unhappy. The seams don't line up from seat bottom to seat back and there is a few areas where there is wrinkles.
He told me he needs more polyester thread to keep covering, and I am gonna try to use this as an excuse to take all the others somewhere else.
I'll take a picture of them when I get back from lunch and get you alls opinion.

I'm very picky as well. Mine aren't worn out either they are just white and are impossible to keep clean. Looks like I can get all new covers from skeeter for around $600 so I think I may do that.

 The center sections not lining up is gonna drive me ape [censored]. Lol, if you hadn't told me then I probably would never have noticed. I put new seats on my boat and took me forever to pick them out because they were hard to find that would fit. I anguished over little details of which looked better and now I never even look at them. I couldn't tell you what they secondary color was if you asked me.

My "cost" on my interior is around $120. Materials and thread. The guy doing them is averaging around an hour per seat at $90 an hour (if I had to pay him). I'd guess a full boat with two large seats, a center seat, a folding seat, and a casting lean seat would be around $600. Parts and labor. I ordered enough of the red ultra leather to wrap the second consoles glove box and the front deck filler panel. I ordered 5 yards of the solid red and a yard and a half of the carbon fiber patterned stuff. The UV resistant polyester thread was $22 for enough to do about 100 seats. Ha.

I seem to be picky also. I have been disappointed with work in the past and have determined I have to STRESS going in that I'm going to inspect and be very critical and if that person can not perform to my expectations please let me know and I'll go elsewhere. I tend to have to pay extra for my expectations but at least in the end there is no confusion.

Looks good and you sure can't beat the price. Post some before and after picks when you get it all done.
