I'm interested in used furniture, as well as a bimini top 96" wide, but hopefully closer to mid-Florida.

I bought mine from Overton's when I re-did a boat a few years ago. They had the best price. Had it delivered in 3 days. Good furniture (Wise I think).

I just did a complete overhaul of a toon (decking to furniture... including helm). Below are the links to companies I checked out when searching for furniture. These are the manufacturers of seating that you can purchase at retailers... and in most cases (probably due to the economy) you can purchase direct from them. I received samples from most of them and went with American Soft Trim for the furniture, and Signature Seating for the helm.

When I did the seats in mine, several things were important, but at the top of the list was the helm seat design and construction because that's the one seat that will be used the most, and it'll be your butt in it for hours at a time. You want to get all the seats from the same source, and made from the same bolt of fabric so they match correctly. Between dye runs, there can be shade differences. Find the source that has the best helm seat for you, and then see if they have the fabric type, colors, pattern, etc. that you want, and finally that they have or can make the sections you want as well as the accessory items to go with them, like cup holders, pillows, sunpad, cushions, or whatever. On mine, I had the same base fabric used to cover the forward end tables, cooler pad, the aft dining tables, and the storage box lids, and this made for a really premium finish look for the boat. I also have triangle cushions for laying back in the sofas, and cup holders that can be placed around in any of the seats and they 'anchor' into the back of the seat cusion...more flexible choice than having them built into the arms IMO and these were fabric wrapped in the accent color.

Wise Seats is the underlying seat frame maker for a lot of boat makers' seats. You might want to see what you find there, and then have them recommend a finishing company.

I wish I could point you to Geldert's in Minnesota, but they have closed up last year due to the economy. They were the top-drawer folks that did everything for my custom build.
