Nice Time With Pontoon Seats
Some friends and I lately headed up to the Muskoka region of Ontario, where an old college friend (Jerod) recently purchased a second hand motorboat from a retiring Quebecois couple. He'd promised a few us a nice weekend on the water, on the condition that we help make this previously-enjoyed watercraft seaworthy.
This was, however, a bit of challenging. Most of the paint on the hull was rusting, the engine was in dire need of a tune-up, and the pontoon seats were peeling and frayed. It wasn't really the weekend of enjoyment we'd been looking to, but it was a fun (or at least entertaining) one nevertheless.
It started off with a half-dozen stops at local hardware, boating and home renovation stores, randomly gathering the materials we needed to get the "Rose of Conakry" (as Jerod had named her) shipshape again. To my surprise, the pontoon boat seats proved to be the hardest to spruce up.
While most of the hardware problems could be fixed with either a bit of oil or a reluctantly-purchased replacement part, the pontoon seats were strongly fused into the boat itself, making it impossible to replace by removing a significant part of the furnishings.
Our early attempts to patch them together with transparent tape and glue proved unsuccessful - we made the pontoon boat seat equivalent of Frankenstein's monster. Instead, we ended up just ripping out most of the fabric, and replacing it using some off-white material we'd chemically treated for water damage.
Unfortunately, the "Rose of Conakry" will never possess the fresh-off-the-line charm it must've had years ago, but I surely prefer it this way, it feels rugged, lived in. Around Sunday afternoon we ultimately managed to take the "Rose" out onto the lake, where we enjoyed a few hours of kicking back beers and watching for the fish.
