Ok first off I did put on some weight.... Heading out last weekend Im leaning on the helms seat bolster and the damn thing collapses on one side. I got screws falling out of one end .. Wood spooge all leaking out... WTF ??? We get to where we are going and I start to play with the seat, it takes me alittle bit to figure out how this thing comes apart . What stupid design. Anyway Im able to spin the bolster to expose the " zipper " . I reach into each end of the bolster pad to expose the ends of the zipper looking for a zipper pull. There is none. All i have is a zipper . So i make the corporate decision and pull the zipper apart so i can see what broke in the bolster. The internal frame of the bolster is wood. Yes WOOD !!! its actually 3 pieces of wood glued together and then screwed to a hinge . I looked for a brand and all I could locate is a Garelick tag in the pedistal. Call Garelick explain to them what happened and they said we dont use wood in our seats but send us a pic so we can check it out . Send the pic . I get a call right back. Not our seat. Searay made/ makes their own and thats what I got . The guy at GARELICK was pretty much laughing at me ... SO to make a long story short. I cut piece of star board to replace the wood in the bolster and went to my buddy;s dry cleaners who found me a # 3 zipper pull. Write it down # 3 plastic zipper pull. How do they make something that u cant open and close? Anyway just want to save someone else some grief !
