Cockpit Upholstery Ideas - Photos Wanted

Looks good! Now you need a teak table in the back there to finish it off.

I’m not usually drawn to caramel colors but this is nicely tied and accented. The captain’s chair is VERY nice looking
 
Following because my original 07 upholstery is smoked

The colors are actually far lighter than the photos which were snapped in evening light.

The white is closely matched to the factory white.

I'm in the process of upgrading to a STIDD seat.

THAT cockpit chair will be available for sale - best offer from anyone who wants to pick it up as I don't want to ship.

We modified the factory helm seat with extra padding, longer arms and a taller backrest all before I went over to the DARK SIDE and chose the STIDD.

here's a few shots of the upholstery canvas.

Being in SW FL protecting the vinly from the sun is paramount.

ALL SOFTGOODS and the dash are protected, as well as the companionway door, which had a tendency to leak in heavy downpours.

Note the mesh at the icemaker locker:

Also, the factory seat fasteners were not stainless. This explains the rust stain trails.

They now ARE stainless, but that seat will be replaced with a STIDD by Feb 1.

LOVING THIS 450 !!!

That looks sharp! The only other thing I see in my quick look that needs done is to replace those yellowing latches on the cabinet doors in the cockpit.
 
I managed to replace the yellowing cup holders on the 450.

Have replacement latches for the lazarette door to try and new stainless port/stbd running lights to install when i get to it.

BEST !
