X100000 on Renè at Riverside.

He did the interior on our 91 Cole, including new wood. I’d like to think we’ve got a perfect mix of period correct but with a more comfortable and updated flare. I think he hit it outta the park with being right in between new and old.

Me personally love the old school look on an old school boat. Eventually my Hallett will have a pure white old school interior whenever that will be. However I guess modernizing an old school boat with new technology isn’t any different than and old school muscle car being modernized.
To each their own.

Stupid as it sounds. I really want a schiada style interior in the m22. Simple buckets and all white. Couple people told me I'm stupid.
That would look killer

There’s some good looking interiors on this thread!!! 😍

I think some people get overwhelmed with choices. I know I did when I wrapped our first cigarette. Went a bit obnoxious because I was like, “fuck it, do all
The things!!” And then later wished I would’ve just gone simple.

I can totally appreciate the busier designs and actually do like them but I really like a clean simple interior.

I myself prefer the older style buckets in an older boat, I kept them and recovered to a carbon fiber style vinyl to bring it more up to date. Hatch and back seat will be replaced by a Big Block Chevy soon.

Not stupid at all. It's a subtle change that will remain timeless, in my opinion. Besides, all your stuff is classy AF.

I got quoted 15k for the 22. So most likely I’ll be building the frames and having my neighbor wrap it.

I got quoted $8500 for the floor in my XtSki....

That being said, going back to the original question....I am very basic, I love an all white interior....no stripes, no colored piping, just plain solid bright white....

I like designs that are timeless. Something that will always look good and not be dated. That said, unless you are completely stripping down the boat and doing a re-gel or paint, I would stay with the design of the time period of the boat. Even if it is something like the teal and turquois colors of the early '90s the interior should match.
