just joined site, have a buddy with a 2002 suntracker regency party barge willing to sell to me but the seats and interior are ruined from being un covered for a long time, what is the best way to go replace entire furniture or get factory seat skins and recover. i really like the seat layout and not too hip with the aftermarket seats

I'm in the same situation. I've found buying new seats is a lot cheaper than having them re-upholstered. I sent pics to a a couple places around me that do seat upholstery and they were all around $3000. Buying new furniture is going to cost me around $2000 and that's with a lot more seating then what is currently on the toon.

That's close to the figures I came up with on my old toon. I just backed out 3k on the price an sold it as is. Had one estimate of over 2k to recover, but looking around 2500 would have bought all new furniture.
That's why I tell everyone............keep your boat covered................

thanks for the helpful info looking into buying all new furniture and recarpet deck

I threw all the furniture away and bought good lawn seats, so I can add seats or remove them as needed and a whole lot lighter, then when I get home the frames stay on the toons and the cushions come inside out of the weather.

I do have to keep the cushions off till I get to the ramp so they don't blow off, but you can buy some good pool furniture that's looks good and with a few screws you can empty the deck for more fishing room.

This is the way to go on a older toons to keep the costs and weight down.

I can't believe I haven't had a gator loaded on my toon yet, was standing by a few years back for one not far away but I guess he found some where else to go because we never got a call back on him after going to look for him one night.

I know that I am going to face that problem soon. I really like the seats in the regency and don't know if you can buy some that will be as nice. I have only seen pictures in catalogs and on the net but they don't look as good as the ones the manufacture put in.
