I am looking for a 20" wide Fiberglass seat shell for my boat .. Or maybe a complete seat ready to go  that is 20" wide maybe white , or grey ??  .. Can not be wider  than 20.5 inches max .. The one I have is too small for me . Would like to be the two rib design to match passenger seat ..
If not , I guess I can get one for Drag Boat City or Canyon Marine new ..Drag boat City has them 20 inch wide and Canyon Marine has a 20.5 .. Not sure if the 20.5 will fit without hitting the in/ out V-Drive lever
Let me know if you have one .. I will have it painted and upholstered if not the right color to match my boat  ..

I would laugh but you know there is a reason I run that fiberglass bench seat most of the time.    :smile30:

I have never fit into these dam seats since I bought this boat , so i though maybe I would get one maybe I can fit into .. It cheaper than dieting .. LOL and I don't think i would ever get that dam small anyway ..

Henry  I thought about that , but prefer not to mess up one of the original seat that is painted to match the boat in case I want to sell it some year ..

I have foam padding all around my seat, does yours have foam that can be removed or reduced to aid?

Jim--I just had the seat redone the past winter and we went with a smaller denser foam .. These seat are just too small for me .. They have always been too small ..

Wayne-- I could diet and lose a lot of weight and still not fit in these small seats .. Every time I try and diet , the dam food is a lot higher than what i normally eat .. I will shed a few pound before summer , but I still will not fit in the seat like I should .. I just dealt with it for the past few years and would like to be more comfortable now .. ..

Loren -- I prefer to not mess these original seats up .. they are custom painted on the back to match the boat ..
I will find a bigger seat and have it done to match the other seat .. It just will not be painted like the passenger seat ..

At the races I seen several guys pull the outside foam out and just leave the insert snapped in. With a a drivers suit and shorts I just barely squeeze in mine and with the required ballistic shorts no way. I'd definitely have to widen mine or get a wider seat to fit well with all the racing gear.

Just a suggestion, fiberglass is easy to work with if you don't mind the itching part.

Jet Boat Performance does. They make a 20" wide & a 24" wide for their "big boy" version. That may grind Billy's gears to buy something from a store with "jet boat" in the name though. :cheesy: I got the impression he was looking for a used one though, maybe not...

Kenny--- Tom is getting me the info later .. I did not see them  on his website so I PM him on Performance boats and he replied .. Need to hook up with him on a couple of things .. Also I found Rex marine has one for sale also , it is black , but i do not know the size , so I replied back to him also ..

Hell it does not matter to me , I been pulled in by a jet boat once , so I have no pride anymore .. LOL
I was looking for a used one if I can find one .. JJ may have one for me , but still looking until i get out to his place and look at it ..

I just googled "big boy fiberglass seat shells" & a few forum links came up. They were old posts though, so wasn't sure how relevant the prices were.

This is what I came across from Jet Boat Performance. And hey, looky there, it sez for jet boats & v-drive boats so you are safe. :grin:

LOL
Comfort relating to a V-Drive?
That's a good one.

Sure thing Billy, no problem. Ya saw that... maybe he'll have an "end of the year clearance" thing going on. :grin:

Also saw this posted on Perf. Boats regarding the fiberglass seat shells...

Scotty Seastrum at Scott's Marine & Welding in Hot Springs, AR builds a couple of size fiberglass seat shells that I believe includes a big boy....
