I inherited an old Avon Redcrest recently and have been struggling to find a replacement for the fiberglass bench seat at the stern. Does anyone happen to know the dimensions of the seat they came with or know of a good place I could purchase a replacement?

I just used a piece of plywood cut to shape with a couple of holes at each end. A light line then secured it to the loops on the tubes.
That should be adequate while you check out any boat jumbles or put a post in the wanted section of this forum.

I was given an inflatable without it's seat, so made one from a piece of timber, the end plastic 'hook' brackets from ebay, varnished and it looks fine.

What does one do if the grey rubber retaining loops are also missing?

I assumed that my old Redcrest (and Redstart) must have preceded that convenience.
