My wife just got this project boat for me (yep, she's a keeper). <br /><br />Situation: <br />-All the mechanical and electrical systems are working fine, one coolent hose leaking at rear of OMC engine, but the interior was totally shot. <br />-Fiberglass and framing look good so far.<br />-ALL seats, and trim panels were rotten. <br />-The carpet is growing moss. <br />So I have gutted the interior, and will be ripping out the carpet in the next day or so.<br /><br />Questions:<br />1. Anyone know where to get the bow seating cushions from or a good way to make them? Not the seat bottoms but the backs and the contoured pads for around the bow area.<br /><br />2. Has anyone used the Truck Bed Lining paints instead of carpet on fiberglass decks? Just concerned that If I ever have to make any fiberglass repairs that it may be impossible to remove the stuff.<br /><br />3. Side trim.. trying to decied if to make them like the original (wood with apolstery), just wood, or foam with carbon fiber(for looks). Your thoughts?
