Buying my first boat

[Bushbeater]

My first "fast" boat was a 1988 Tracker Pro 17 bought new. Just finally sold it this summer. We ran that boat everywhere, including LOZ in the summer and the Mississippi from the Meramec area to Clarksville. Never had any issues. You will love it.

So on the seats, I talked with BPS and they said I had to go through the Tracker service center here in St Louis.  Got a quote but they said they wouldn't be able to get any of the seats for my year except for the backs of the drivers and passenger seats.  I thought that was weird because the seats on the Pro Team 175 TXW's really haven't changed over the years of that model.  Not sure why they couldn't get them for a newer year.  Anyways, they wanted $270 each for the backs only.  No thanks.  I can get a complete set of replacement seats which includes a new butt seat, rear fishing seat and all pieces that go on the bench seats for $579 at bassboatseats.com.
