Gel coat is easy don't try to cheat like I did here and over sanded the edges using a palm sander (edges must be done the hard way) I have to re-spray these spots trick is to tape up the sanded area.
As for cushions for the seat I may have something custom done it the fall .. See the edges ? I remove 20 plus mils and expose the resin ..

Do what?
Man, that is a good deal on the resin and gelcoat. It would be worth the drive from Lakeland. Last resin I bought was $30/gal. Back in 2000 when I was hot and heavy into the rebuild I was paying $17.99/gal and I was buying 10 gallons at a time. I won't even tell you what the gelcoat was running. I could have built another boat with the money I would have saved. COL!

Hey NYMack, there is a guy on Ebay who sells a wide variety of seat cushions. Just do a search for boat seats and they should come up. He often has sets of cushions (i.e. the backrest cushion and the seat cushion). They are generally white with various colors of piping. No idea where he is getting them, but they go pretty cheap. I bought one from that was white with red piping to match the bootstripes and bimini on my V cuddy and put it on a big igloo cooler. Even came with SS screws and snaps. I think I only paid about $15 for it.
