In this video we will show how to reupholster side panels on a powerboat. We will remove the old upholstered side panels and replace the foam and then staple on new marine quality vinyl fabric from Sailrite.
There are many ways to upholster side panels, here we are simply using a backer board, foam the vinyl fabric with piping around the sides. A teak strip of wood will help accentuate the look of ours. Some prefer to use varying colors of vinyl or to sew pleats into the vinyl thru the Polyurethane foam with fabric backing.
