Replacement seats for 1986 Beachcraft 170 Boat?

[timjor]

I have a Beachcraft 170, which is a 17ft runabout with an OMC stern drive (I/O) in it. I am looking to replace the seats. They are the original seats, which have become cracked and now have the foam poking out. Are there any "drop in" replacements for the seats (2 back-to-back, and 2 at the rear of the boat against the transom)? If so, whoich brand and model? If not, what is the best fit for these seats? Any advice on how to go about this project? I looked at re-upholstering the seats, but that is expensive.

I am relatively new to boating (this is my first boat), and I have only done basic maintenance on the boat since I got it cleaning, waxing, etc. I use a regular "boat guy" for annual service and repairs on the machanics.

Thanks

Tim

If you find any, let me know. I would love some for my 80' Trihull

You can drop in lounge style seats brand new,and that would be cheaper than getting them redone I think. Check out Wise seating.
