So my seat in front of the console needs to be reupholstered. The seat itself has busted open at the seems in a couple of places. Searching on Ebay I found a set of backrest and seat new for a 2014/2015 220cc. I know the console is different but I am hoping I can direct replace or just modify it slightly. Has anyone done this? Do the attachment holes line up? Either way I thought it was a good deal to redo my seat. By the way the seller has seats for different Sailfish boats new old stock. Here is what I bought:

If you don't mind the cushions not matching with the rest of your cushions sounds like a viable option
Ootherwise Llbroc can make you a factory matched replacement

Figure I will use vinyl paint if I’m not happy with the color

Well the 2015 seat worked perfectly. Before and after:

Looks good. What year was your original seat/boat?

Jesus did you let people sit on that?! The sofa in my frat house looked better!
The new cushions look great!

Looks good. What year was your original seat/boat? My boat is a 2008 218. I was worried as the center console had been changed, but it was a direct replacement. All the holes lined up perfectly.

I definitely let it go. All other cushions are in good shape, but once a seam broke open the seat was done. I waited too long.

My 218 is a 2007, and the front seat relative to the T-Top legs is a lot different. In yours it looks like the seat is recessed somewhat between the legs. It almost looks like someone would hit their head on the aluminum cross bar if they were very tall!?

I think the angle of the picture makes it look off.

I was able to get the matching leaning post seat from Great lakes Skipper. Now it matches the front seat. Coaming bolsters next. Might do Seadek.
