With Tom's help it looks like I can get done what needs to be done. It will most likely be a couple of weeks until we can get this in process. I will be sure to report back once the repair is complete in the event other people have a similar problem.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for checking in. I just left a message at the shop late last week and waiting to hear back. Before that the contact at the shop was on vacation and then I was away visiting kids/grand kids. Now we are in the busy season with the car guys and boat guys getting ready for the warm weather....I imagine it will take a while to get the seat in for repair.

I use Zymol vinyl conditioner. It looks good, not too shiny or greasy. Whether or not it does anything to actually "condition" the vinyl is a question I don't know the answer to.

Just heard from Bob...they are buried with spring rush..awnings/boats..he says he will call you to discuss timing. If it doesn't play out to your satisfaction, I will talk to a few other guys.
