I've heard from two upholstery shops not to do tweed stating it will only last two seasons...what do u think

I think how long it lasts is going to depend on how often its out in the sun. If it's stored inside when not in use, and only gets used 8-10 weekends a year, it should last many years. If it sits outside in the driveway year round with a cheep cover on it intermittently it's not going to survive for very long.

If any one has any pics of ideas please post...don't know how long it's going to stay blue so don't wanna add any to the seats

3 out of 4 boats (in my yard) are blue. Blue always works :thumbup:

BTW, I think the best set-up for seats I've seen is Keith's Hondo (crewchief22) Lotsa room for a small space.

do you know if there is marine tweed or just auto
martinez marine says they use marine tweed, idk what the difference is but its holding up. One hard season down and already had 2 trips this year still look new. 👍🏻
