Title: Can't remember where to buy 90 degree aluminum back supports...
Post by: Pegasus2007 on April 29, 2012, 11:57:29 am
It's been so long since I've needed to buy these, I've forgotten where I got them.  They are a pair of aluminum 90 degree supports that you bolt to the underneath of your boat seat and then you bolt the seat back to the other end.  Anyone know?  Thanks, Russell.

We used to purchase from them wholesale but that was years ago. Since then we
have become mainly focussed on canvas. We don't see many boats with those
brackets in our area much anymore. They used to be on Marinettes and many of
the Pompanette seats.

Won't hurt to call and find out. If they won't sell direct to you Paxton, Mesco or
a local marine supply house in your area may be able to get them.

Not bad Mike. Sometimes a customer wanted to replace them because they were
oxidized a looked terrible next to the new vinyl. Have also used them to build new
seats.

I'm actually going to use them to make a couple of cheap boat seats for my own personal use.  I'm imagining that somehow I'll find the time to do this. Ha!  It's getting so busy I'm propably kidding myself!  Everyone is unwrapping their boats right now and they all need something done by last Thursday!  Tis the season!

Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day rushes. Don't do those anymore. Still in the area I'm just at that age where I won't put that pressure on myself anymore.
