380 Santego aft Seat back

Post by Mccoy380 »

Hi all,

One of my first posts...Have a project in my future and was wondering if anyone has had to redo the aft seat back on the 380 Santego? The wood is breaking down in ours and has a substantial bow in it. I am contemplating redoing it myself and reusing the vinyl by just redoing the wood structure and re-wrapping it however I do not want to bite off more than I can chew.

Use stainless or monel staples.
We redid our entire boat - this is an easy project.
Thanks

I just paid an upholstery shop to rebuild the aft seat on 98 380 santego. All the wood was rotten. Cost was 1400 bucks and she looks new again
