We have owned our Thompson Sea Coaster since the mid 80's. It is a 1964 Sea Coaster, thanks to Andreas for correcting the year as we thought it was a 1965. I have seen many Sea Coasters with the same color interior as ours, seats and dash, and they all have the vinyl decking. Ours is a two tone Aqua and White. Is there any way of telling if the boat came originally with this covering? Was it factory applied? Dealer applied? I like they way it lookes without the vinyl, but also like it with the covering. Whats odd is the center board on the deck is the same shape as the ones with or without the covering, and the bow lights are the same as well. By reading the forum I was under the assumption that all the accessories may have been dealer installed to suit the buyer. Could someone shed some light on this?
Thanks, Will
