Not sure which forum this should be in but mods move it if its in the wrong one.

Been looking for new seats for my speedboat as we broke the last set going over a big wave :D , I was bidding on a set on ebay from a speed boat. The bidding went a bit silly for two old seats (IMHO). I hae found these cobra bucket seats on various websites for sale. Does anyone have any experience with these seats and would they be in a wet enviroment. Any one know how they would fix down, would i need subframes?
Any advice would be appreciated

Seats ive found:

Hmm.. they should be similar to a set I had in one of my old Classics..
as far as mounting goes, I think the should have 4 mounting holes on the bottom for bolts, so some sort of runner or subframes would be needed..

'fraid I can't help you with the 'wet' part.. my mini never got *THAT* damp! :rolleyes::smilewinkgrin::D

Vinyl ones will definitely fare better than cloth ones.. but I couldn't sa how much better...
