Finished replacing my rotten seat wood. I picked up this upholstery stapler on eBay. Came with the stainless staples for around $100. Sure made this job a lot easier.

My bad

Sent from my DROID RAZR using SoCal Jet Boats mobile app

Brings back bad memories....
15 years old and the maiden voyage of mine and my buddies 14ft valco aluminum and a 25 hp Johnson.... Throttle stuck full throttle (those things rev to the moon) at the Newport dunes launch ramp, threw me on the floor, smashed a vintage sailboat and motor fell off the transom into the harbor.... Oh yeah it was Easter Sunday and the ramp was packed... The guy in the sailboat came out and yelled, "you better not go anywhere! ". I replied, "I have no fucking motor, where do you think I'm gonna go?!" Not my best moment lol....

It cost $600.00. It is this lady who lives in cypress,ca. She got the material Monday and was finished by Tuesday. After she sewed the material together it took her 45 min to fit it and bam done. Definitely a happy customer.

Where'd you end up getting the gauges at? I've been contemplating redoing all my gauges and wiring. (It's a super rats nest right now plus the only gauge that actually works is the rpm)

JetBoatPerformance did all of the work. They gave me the gauges for $189 and cut me a break on install. GREAT service from them. I am so glad I didn't have to do it. I'm a little burnt out at this point.
