- How to fix blown out seams on boat seats yourself. I've used this method to repair several seams on my pontoon boat where the stitching rotted away because of sun exposure.

Westmarine has these sewing tools too. They also sell whipping twin in a few different weights. Defender is another good marine supplier. Thanks for the video. Good to see small repairs.
Great tutorial. Thanks
Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you! Forgot how to do this and your video was what I was looking for. Yay!
Hey glad it helped! Hope you consider subscribing 🙂
Nice
Good video. My vinyl actually tore at the thread holes. Any suggestions for that type repair?
Thanks! I have this same situation with one of the seams that I repaired a few years ago. In my case it is only the center seam that is ripped where some of the holes are. I've been considering removing the thread from all 3 seams (center + the 2 sides). Then inserting a piece of fabric underneath each side and restitching the sides with that fabric inside. Then restitching the center seam the same way you normally would (creating new holes in that new center piece where the old holes ripped). It's kind of confusing to describe. I wonder if I should try making another video showing that (if it works). Curious if you've had any other ideas? Consider subscribing in case I post another video (or if you like my other content too).
My seats are pretty hard, think this repair would still work or is it likely to rip the holes in the vinyl material ?
Like, very sun hardened.
Hard to say without seeing it in person, but sounds like there is a good chance of the holes ripping based on your description.
Where can I purchase this
I listed all the tools that I used in the video description. Good luck with the repair!
Your video is good but to fast.
Doing what you do works a double needle method works better. There are tutorials on here. Good job though.
Oh you must be referring to a double blind stitch. Very cool. I just looked it up. I’ll have to give that a try. Thanks for the tip!
It would have been more helpful if you wouldn't have gone so fast.
Sorry about that. I tried to make the first stitch slow and speed up the rest so people don’t lose interest. Next time I’ll try to do a few more slow ones before speeding things up. Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully you got what you needed by replaying the slower parts.
Agreed …but I slowed it down to .75x speed and could follow it. I was actually looking for a topstitch ONLY repair because my boat’s center seam stitches appear OK. I may just try a back stitch topstitch with the curved needle - although the fabric that covers the back of the seam may be a problem. Thanks for the helpful video.
To complicated to pick up off short Video!!!!!
In case it helps, TH-cam gives you the option to change the playback speed. You can use that to slow it down.
