I've done quite a bit of boat upholsterywork and am aware of the flexa vinyl. It's priced low and there IS a reason. it's only 28oz.fabric, It's rated at only 250,000 rub cycle and the thickness of the vinyl is .95mm. I only use 30-32 oz fabric with a minimum of 500.000 rub cycle. Budget vinyl will not last very long and I personally wouldn't want to have to re-upholster my boat seats every 2-3 years. I get my vinyl for about $15 a yard and shipping is under $30.
