Based on Low PSI thread on his new interior I see there are a few OSO members looking for a good Upholstery/Design shop. Here is a 280 interior (before/after) that we had completed in April this year.
Hope the OSO members in this section like it as much as the owner. I will start with pics of the original interior as it was delivered to us. The owner said just do what you think, but he said it would be nice to have rear cupholders, and grab handles that his cockpit seating was missing.

Well the first thing to do is get the new design right on paper first. Hey, here is a good idea. Let's build everything in Prolite plastic material that will never rot. This stuff comes in 3/8", 1/2", or 3/4" just like plywood but at 4 times the cost per sheet.

Well it is time to start carving foam now. Called the customer and said "what do you think about (3) separate seating sections & headrests instead of the one piece angle? He said "just do it!"
Notice the nice armrest, and room for (4) SS cupholders in place.

Here is the start to making the vinyl patterns and design changes. When you do a original design you have to do it twice to get right. The first patterns can be in any color scrap vinyl like in these photos.

The customer on this project is also painting the complete exterior of the boat, and picked the "V-Strike" graphic from the Velocity website. He asked us to do something to match in the White, Blue, and Carbon Silver colors of his choice.
He was very happy with the results!

It is all starting to come together now. Notice the customer sent us a sub, and speaker that we decided to recess into the bench bottom. He liked that little extra touch.

The only thing I need now is some photos of it installed in the boat! The owner said he was hoping to have the paint completed in June?
It dosn't show in the photo, but there are holes already located in the side pads for Joes 6 1/2" speakers he plans to install.
Hope you all like this little story.
