    Replacement leaning post

    This is what I currently have. I don’t have a picture showing the live well on the back side

    Replacement leaning post

    These are 2 that I have found that are reasonable. The Fishmaster is about $1200 but doesn’t have storage the Elevation is about $1400 and has storage

    Replacement leaning post

    I’m planning on installing a new leaning post and was curious what others have done. I have a 2004 Fisherman 222 with the live well as part of the leaning posts. It takes up too much space. I’m thinking about the Fishmaster pro or one from Elevation Marine. I’m looking for one with a fixed...

    Decals

    My local dealer, in Massachusetts, had about a dozen stripes to choose from. I also opted for the new Grady logo for my 04 Fisherman

    Making new cushions

    I made new cushions for the coaming pads front seat and backrest and leaning post and backrest. I ended up just making templates and making new cushions. I tried taking apart one of the old coaming pads and it was too dry and cracked to be useful. I also made a new t top and surround. I’m pretty...

    Hull Logo

    I just bought new hull decals and stripes at my local dealer in Massachusetts. I went with the new chrome Grady emblem and they were $120 each. Mine were the smaller ones 38". And the stripe was not the matching one for my 2004 but at least its new and was $1.50 LF

    Basic Canvas/Upholstery -

    I am much like you, I think. I'm good with tools and can plan things out. I looked at the cost of a new T Top and figured I could do it. I think lots of people would especially for simple repairs like a broken zipper or ripped seam. I taught myself to sew in October and took a canvas class in...

    Making new cushions

    I have a cottage in Falmouth, by Waquoit Bay, and am lucky enough to have a sister at the end of my street with a dock so that's where I keep mine.

    Making new cushions

    I bought a Sailrite LSZ-1. I picked up a decent wood kitchen table for $35 and put a cut out to mount the machine so I have a nice work surface.

    Making new cushions

    Thanks for the tips. I just started sewing this past Fall when I saw what the cost was for a new T Top. I found a marine canvas course here in MA and took it. I figured for the same money, as the new top, I could learn. I just finished my T top and the enclosure for my center console and am...

    Making new cushions

    I'm just getting started making new cushions for my 2004 Fisherman 222. I figured I'd post a picture of my 18 yr old cushions with the new Seaquest Sea White vinyl that I got yesterday. Lighting isn't great but looks like a perfect match.

    Replacement canvas for bimini top

    Depending where you're located there are a few shops I know of around us. I actually took a class as I wanted to replace the T op of my Grady. Hood Canvas, where I took the class, is out of Merrimack, MA. There are also places in Wareham and down the Cape. I have a 2004 Fishermann 222 and used...
