Featuring Highly-Durable Marine Sileather® Silicone Fabrics

All Sportsman Boats feature Sileather® Marine silicone-coated fabrics. These high-performance fabrics are designed to be tough and durable and able to withstand even the harshest of conditions. Sileather® Fabrics are QUV, salt spray, stain, cold crack and hydrolysis resistant. Silicone is not affected by hydrolysis or water damage, which can be an issue with traditional polyurethane-based fabrics. Additionally, Sileather® fabrics do not contain any plasticizers, a known food for pink staining bacteria commonly found in marine vinyl.

We offer 3 color options featuring our diamond stitch accent pattern on all of our models. There's no additional charge for any upholstery color, you just choose the one that ties in your color theme the best!
