New boat!! ...but need help!

So I'm afraid I've moved to the dark side! Sold my thundercat & have just bought a fletcher 17 arrowstreak.

Really nice boat with a v4 yamaha 115hp. Completely sound through out & in fairly good condition.

There's a few bits that need doing however.

Firstly there's a few seams on the seats that need re stitching.

Does anybody anywhere cheap to get them sorted in the poole/Weymouth area?

Also it needs a head unit for the stereo & also the Ariel needs testing.

Lastly it has nav lights and interior lights that don't work! So they need sorting unfortunately. It also has a collapsible mast white light.

Main thing is the seat I want sorting first so if anyone knows anywhere that would be great!!
