Hi Forum Members, checking to see if anyone has put a cover on the transom seat (when in the up position) on a Fisherman 257? I just took delivery on mine and second fishing trip I noticed a hole in the vinyl seat, not sure what it was from, but want to cover it with Cordura or something to hopefully prevent it from happening again.

I'm checking in my area for a custom cover guy but wanted to see if anyone has done something like this.

big thanks
 
Lewes,
I have an appointment next month with my canvas guy to have a cover made for the fold down seat on our new 235. It will be used when we are crabbing and shrimping to keep the pots from damaging the upholstery. I'll post pix when it's done.
Regards, Mike

Lewes, in re-reading your post I see that you were asking about a cover for the rear seat when it's up. Sorry for the misread.The cover that I had made is for the seat in the folded down position.
Any boat canvas shop should be able to easily make what you're looking for.
Here are pix of the new cover...
Regards, Mike
