That or vinyl,stretch ,staple ,done at least use monel staples though or you will get rust stains on your hull.

He is right, marine vinyl is at the fabric store and with a heat gun it can be made to stretch nicely. Monel staples are at Home Depot.

ah ha... thank you. i didnt even think about the rust from the staples. good call!

Heat the plastic a little before shooting staples, they go in easier.

def, the plastic is hard as a mofo. b patient, heat and gently streach.

The plastic is not UV stable and turns to crap rather quickly when exposed to direct sunlight.:Eyecrazy:

Just go seatless. I did! Seats are over rated.
