so tell me do you have any of the old v8 outboards left in your garage. I am thinking about building a 3 seat sitdown any ideas. Are you still doing the paintball thing?

Twin marine in Miami makes really nice stuff.

I had a guy named Fabian (F1 marine) in Miami make the stand up ones for my Banana.

Back in 2002, they were $2000 for two seats with brackets.

I managed to finagle a plain white set for $1000 with no brackets and shipped them home myself on the airline I was working for.

Remember one thing though, these new seats are larger overall size than original Banana bolsters so when you install them, the cockpit shrinks in size.

Here are some pics...
