As a former GB dealer I seem to recall the flybridge L-shaped settee was set atop the teak decking (but I could be wrong). Teak trim pieces were used to cover up the joint where the seat met the deck. There were at least two different seat molds used, the later mold was a little lower and had a more rounded corner. I recall building a mold and making a seat for an Eastbay 58 owner but it wasn't inexpensive.

The forward bench seats were molded in with the teak relieved around the base. You can find mid-nineties 42's with no teak on the bridge and factory pedestal chairs. No two GB's were exactly alike.

Keep in mind that in 1991 the 42 was lengthened and widened a bit making post '91 42's more desirable. Nothing wrong with pre-'91 boats though so make your decision more on condition and layout keeping in mind the normal GB worries like tanks.
