Huge thank you to David! Our brand new custom wings and side curtains on our Robalo R272 CC look awesome! Should have done this sooner! Our questioned were listened to and answered honestly. David made sure we were comfortable with everything from concept to completion. He said don't hesitate to text or call with any questions at all and when I did he answered. Historically people are quick to complain when they aren't satisfied but not willing to offer gratitude and compliments. I felt this experience worthy to give a testimonial, which I'm not one to do lol. I'd recommend David to anyone. Well done. Thank you!! 🍻🚤⚓️👏

Common questions and tips from our work with Somers Point customers.
- What makes a good fishing seat on a boat?
- A good fishing seat fits the space without blocking rod holders, walkways or the work area. It sits at a comfortable height for the helm or the cockpit, drains water instead of holding it, and mounts solidly so it does not shift in chop. Marine vinyl and closed-cell or quick-dry foam hold up better than household materials in sun and spray.
- Can worn boat seats be reupholstered instead of replaced?
- Often, yes. If the seat base and frame are solid, new foam and marine vinyl can make a seat look and feel new. If the base is rotted or the frame is cracked, building a new seat is usually the better move. Bring the seat in or send details, and we can tell you which way makes sense.
Tip
Keep marine upholstery in good shape
Rinse seats with fresh water after trips to get salt off, and use a cleaner made for marine vinyl rather than harsh household products. Keep seats covered when the boat is not in use, since UV is the main cause of cracking and fading. If you see a split in the vinyl, get it repaired before water soaks into the foam underneath.
FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Call or visit the shop and we'll talk through what you have and what you want. If you need a new cover or bimini top, we measure your boat and discuss the fabrics and options. If you have an existing cover that needs work, bring it in or describe the damage and we can give you guidance on whether it's a repair or time for something new.
Repairs usually take a few days depending on the scope and our workload. Custom builds take longer since we measure, design and fabricate. Give us a call with details about your project and we can give you an honest timeline. We keep you updated as the work moves forward.
We work with marine-grade fabrics built to handle sun, salt and weather. We can show you samples and discuss what works best for your boat, your budget and how you use the vessel. The right fabric for fishing seats is different from canvas for covers, and we help you pick what makes sense.
Yes. If you have a bimini top, boat cover or canvas work from another shop that needs repair, bring it in. We can fix rips, tears, seams, grommets and other damage. Some repairs are straightforward; others need the full cover off the boat. We assess the damage and let you know what we can do.
We can meet you at your boat for measurement and consultation. For repairs and fitting, sometimes the boat comes to us, and sometimes we work on it where it sits. Call to discuss the best approach for your project and boat location.
