No Laughing matter !!!

[8-ball]

:confused: Gentlemen, please don't laugh !!! Yesterday I lost the seat cushion covering the battery compartment on my '97 sweet 16 !!!!! IT flew right out of the boat and I never saw it go !!!! Searched for hours but never found it !!! I know the boat is fast , but ?????????
-----can anyone tell me where to find a replacement cushion ??? Bilt Rite in Fla. shows no ph listing. --- the seating arrangement is the 4+1 type. -- 3 of the snaps were torn off the seat when it "took off" !!! Can anyone help with an upholstery mfgr. who already has the patterns ???? signed: "Sore Butts" in Ohio . Please---this is for real and any help appreciated !! - Bob

Don't feel bad, mine has blown out many times, it's not uncommon. Look up "knots2u" on this board, he may be able to help.

Bilt-Rite Upholstery Roanoke VA 540-981-1711, this number is from a post in 2005, hopefully it will work for you.

At this time he is only doing carpets; but maybe he knows of a good upholstery shop that he can reccomend.

You might try Premier Performance Interiors in Sarasota. They are supplying the new Donzis upholstery. I bought four bucket seats from them a while back.

Just a few days ago I rescued a rear cushion from a 18C. It seems to be a common problem. Good luck finding a replacement.:starfish:

On previous threads about this topic, this company was mentioned.

www.boatclinic.com I would give them a shout.

Bob does not do interiors any longer.

Check with "Smoothie" here on the site. He has had very good luck with a guy in Ohio.

I feel for you 8-ball. I've lost the rear cushion, several life jackets, towels, etc. In the 16, if it's not bolted down, anything over 50mph and it's as good as gone.

Sir, how did you get your seat replaced ? -- Thanx, 8-ball

Premier Performance Interiors 914-752-6271, they should have the correct pattern for your rear seat. They do the best job of imitating Bilt-Rite interiors! :)



Good luck,
Bob

Sir, how did you get your seat replaced ? -- Thanx, 8-ballMine wasn't a 'real' Donzi so the interior was different. But to answer your question, I do upholstery work.......or use to......well still do.....sometimes......but only if I have to.

Premier Performance looks like the place to go.
