Arrow Almost finished the new 3 pack seating for the 202

Well after being tossed out of the boat a few summers back, decided it was time to make something that would keep me in , esp when were gona try to run a 100 in this thing which will def happen.. Once this drys we will be adding the corner sections to the seats, glassing them in along with giving it a good coat along the op and front sides.. Then off to get it covered... Most of ya know what the seating consists of in the 202, it isn't much to keep ya in... This will run all the way to the dash, bolt to it so it is all tied together... What do you all think so far??




















It is not finished, just a test fit, have to trim the top a little bit, sand it down and put a finial coat of ressin on it...

Nice mate, can't wait to see the final product. I need to do some wood work on the back panel in mine, the bit that holds the pad up has just puller loose and I'm no longer confident in the wood. If yours works, it may inspire me!

Now if only I can get my ignition to work...

Good luck Jjr, keep us posted!

All that needs to be done now is to set the seat in the boat, make sure it all fits well, then add a final coat of rez to the top of it, so no water can run into the top of it, then it will be off the the shop to get foamed and covered. Then have to make the bottom seat pads....

Don't make them too comfy or you might doze off in the seats?!!!

All kidding aside, if your being tossed around you should get a teather to the ignition so in case you get tossed the engine at least quits. I have twin teathers on my Stinger but I usually stand while driving and rarely sit. I have drop down bolsters which are very comfy for the tush but rarely used.
Safety first pal.
