anyone used the hydro turf seat covers - how do they hold up??

I heard from some people on this forum that Jettrim and AP Designs hold up better. They are also more expensive.

1997 GP1200 - Limited setup

I've used Hydroturf seat covers on my race boats for years and they hold up very well. Better than the Jet Trim cover's I've tried.

thanks - they are approx 100.00 cheaper + U can get the mats and seat cover for the price of a jet trim cover!!!!

I've had both, and although I think the Jettrim is a superior cover, the Hydro is more than worth the asking price, it looks good and holds up to abuse quite well, I've had one on my GPR for 2 very full seasons with it still looking like new. Fortunatelly I can say the same of my Jetrim 6 years old and just has a little bit of wear showing.

I had them both and prefer the Jet-Trim "Bath-Mat" material better.

I have used hydro turf for a few years and they hold up great!! Good luck on you choice!

i do wear a wetsuit, and would advise to do so. nobody wants a 25mph + enema

I have a hydro turf seat cover on my XLL, but have an issue of the water seeping through the stitchin' and onto the motor (salt water). I had the guy (who put the cover on) take off the existing material because it didn't look right with the Hydro seat cover over the existing seat cover. Now i have the water problem.

Anybody have any suggestions?

I use the Jettrim cover with the mildslip black fabric which does not slip but can scratch if you only have 'trunks' on.Anybody wants a pic let me know as it looks good with the orange to match the GP1300 colors.
