    Seat options and mounting for Hydrostream

    Wondering what is out there for seats for an 18 foot Hydrostream? Will need two bucket seats and a rear bench seat. I think someone was making the carbon fiber seats and seem very nice but looking for other options too...Also how do you mount the seats the right way? I don't want the seat to a high back and will most likely have to upholster because white wont work. The boat is red and black and will most likely have gray interior

    Found a site to customize the seat colors, should I go with black seats to match the boat or try to work with dark gray

    Will black seats and black carpet be too hot??

    I'd want a light color interior in my boat. Dark is too hot. Light does require more cleaning. You could buy the seats from Hydrostream Canada. Pseudo Ally buckets and a rear bench. Gwen's upholstery is a bit more comfortable than my real Allison seats.

    Nicest stuff that I know of comes out of Fineline Interiors. Mike is very busy but if you are looking for the best in custom, he is the man.

    Thanks for the input guys...I looked online and found this site and I am looking at this seat for the front and will customine the color. Since I want the seats to rest right on the floor, I'm thinking about adding a locking swivel base. I am going to fiberglass a 1" piece of wood on top of the floor before I carpet to bolt the base to

    I am checking to see if they can make one of the sets a foot wider to use as a rear seat. I think these look OK compared to some of the seats out there.
