Custom loungers or Wise ?

[theoldwizard1]

I have a 2002 Starcraft Starfire LE 170. When I bought it, it came with 3 fishing seats (why I didn't buy the 4th, I'll never know). They also had an option of a back-to-back lounger on the port side.

Now a days, the boat spends more time give the grandkids boat and tube rides, 2 back-to-back loungers so that I could carry 6 passengers in comfort would be nice (I have the front cushions). I would really like the loungers to match the rest of the interior; medium gray carpet, lighter gray/tan(?) with medium gray accents.

So should I have custom made loungers made up to match or just buy some Wise loungers ? Which ones ? The "Contemporary" (WD1033) look nice but the everything is whit with a contrasting color. The "Deluxe" look like they have a closer color match (code 867 grey/charcoal/porcelaine.

I think you will have a hard time finding a perfect match. There are quite a few sites that have boat seat if you do a google search. Can you find another folding seat to match what you have? If so you could build a storage box the correct size to mount two folding seat back to back to create your own, plus get additional storage.

Seating is one of the most important and potentially expensive pieces that are in a boat. Most of the time we compromise between looks and price but having nice seating in the boat won't ever be something you hear guys complain about. Personally I don't like the low back non fitted "head knocker" back to back lounger type seats, especially for the helm. No matter what shop the upper end of the manufacturers line of seats.
