Please describe the project specifications

The customer purchased a older sunseeker to use as a corporate entertain boat on the Chicago River and was looking for a major upgraded look to both the interior and exterior upholstery. For the exterior we chose a combination of Sunbrella Fabric and Sunbrella Horizon Textil in gray tones. We added a unique quilting pattern to tie all the areas in and give a connection between the fabric and vinyl sections. All foam profiles were changed to new clean design and some backrest plastics components were recovered rather than replaced.

What is unique or complex about the project?

The finished product gave such a nice and clean modern look incorporating a unique quilted pattern. The new look required a lot of foam sculpturing and pattern matches to incorporate the look the customer was wanting.
