New Jockey Seats

Hi Guys,

I am trying to sort out my boat for the summer, and I want to add more seating capacity.

I currently have three single jockeys... one for the helm, and one other side behind it..

I am either looking at getting 4 single pods, and putting them in behind what I have, or the alternative is to rip out what I have, and put in two triples behind the helm.

I have tried getting quotes from barnet marine, but they want £495 per single pod... and then fitting on top!

Does anyone know of any seats around? Or some other suggestions of where I can get them custom made?

Thanks

Ben

Hi Ben I found Leeway to make simple yet well made seats the laminating is well done and they don't skimp on materials. prices were not too bad either.
