Bow sun lounge / Filler cushions

LHMDerek

Hello, I'm new to the forum. I purchased my first boat last year. It's a used 2004 Hurricane SunDeck 237 O/B. It's in extremely good condition.

I'm interested in some accessories that were options for these boats and I'm having trouble tracking things down.

1. I'm looking for the bow filler cushions. I have been reading discussions on this forum since I got the boat last year. I have read all the existing discussions relating to this topic. I came across a discussion where someone said to contact Hurricane (who ultimately said to contact a dealer) to get these bow lounge cushions ordered. I had no such luck. I just got off the phone with my dealer....they claim that they got a response from Hurricane saying they won't make any parts for boats older than 2008. I was VERY surprised and disappointed to hear this since that is not very far back at all. Can anyone confirm if this is true? Or can anyone tell me how to get ahold of some of these sun lounge cushions for the bow of my 2004 SD237 O/B??


2. I want a full enclosure for the boat. I already have a full enclosure from the windshield back. I'm interested in a FULL enclosure that covers all the way to the bow. I've seen these camping enclosures before and I know they exist. I came across a picture in a Hurricane catalog from 2008 that I found online. I haven't had any luck finding one. Does anyone know if this is something I can buy for my boat, or am I stuck getting one custom made?


3. I am also interested in possibly changing the color of the upholstery on the boat. The current seats and vinyl aren't in bad condition at all, so I'd hate to have them reupholstered. Seems like a waste. I'd rather buy all new cushions in a new color and still have the originals as spares. Does anyone know where I can buy a new set of cushions all around for this boat? I've read discussions pertaining to this and know Veada can help with certain things. They could supply the vinyl if I was matching my existing colors exactly. They also sell the exact captains chair that comes on my boat. But I did not see any other cushions on their site that match the shape and sizes of the ones on my boat. Does anyone know where i could get replacement cushions?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

your better off getting the bow filler custom made.... I spent $500 on mine from the dealer when I bought the boat... took Hurricane 8 months and 3 attempts to even make ones that fit.. and in the end now they fit but the color of the fabric is wrong! so disappointing......

WELCOME to the forum and congratulations on becoming a Hurricane owner!

You and your family are going to love the SD237, we do!

It is true that Hurricane doesn't have parts and sometimes information beyond 2008 regarding their boats.  But the SD237 was manufactured up till 2014 in the OB version.  Although the factory can't be sure, many hardware parts may be similar for your year model as the newer models.  You can always use this forum to check (pictures always help!).   Hurricane also manufactures much of it's own interiors, that's why you most likely will only find helm seats available aftermarket or from Veada.

As much as I understand you wanting to find a way around the custom route, with all you're telling us you want to do, I think you'd be better served going that direction.  You'll be much happier with the coordinated look, and more importantly, the fit of everything on your boat instead of trying to piece things together to get them to match. 

Also, with regards to the sun lounger option, just like skidtrash recommends, most owners wanting this option after the boat was delivered had much better success with the proper fit using custom upholstery installers.

Thank you, I appreciate the input! Looks like I'm going the custom route...

I'll post a picture later this season once I complete my few little projects on the boat this year.

Thanks again!
