I know this is Garwood country , but here goes. Does anyone know or know where I might find some upholstery specifications, spring height cushions and backs. pleated or plain with some panels?
Any help would be great thanks.

I believe Mike Mayer of Lake Oswego Boat Co. has one of these Hackers as a personal boat and he may also be able to help you out. Between Brian and Mike, you'll get the info you need.

Thanks for the input . Went with 6" springs . had no details to go with so I made them over springed I'm sure . Garwoods use a few springs on backs , so I doubled up on the Hacker Craft. sits great looks good :lol:
