it gets pretty expensive. we had to get our jetski seat recovered and it was like $200. i can't even imagine how much it would be to redo the whole boat.

I paid a little over $700 to have driver seat, observation seat, and back bench recovered late last year.

I ran into a guy with a 2001 at the boat dock who just had all his seats done. He said he paid ~1500. Im doing mine myself.

Thats everyone, I thought it would be a lot more to get it done, $700 is not too bad. By the way, who would I see to do this type of stuff?

Go to a good upholstery shop. Make sure they use stainless staples when putting the seats together or they will rust. Most shops will charge between $700 and $2000, depending on quality of the materials you choose and weather or not you are putting in new carpet.
