Title: Rowers Seat for a drift boat
Post by: Bone_Collector on February 10, 2012, 05:43:04 AM: Hey I am re-doing the rowers seat in the drift boat and I am trying to figure out the best material to use. I dont want to put any thing like a tractor seat because the whole bench is powder coated and I dont want to have that redone. Thanks!

I have also seen the seats made of nylon strap. I perfer the rope seats.
