[QUOTE="flynavy812, post: 415844, member: 21296"] Hi everyone, new to the forum! This is my first boat, a 12 foot Fisher with a 8HP Mercury. Bug has already bit me, as I have lots of ideas but little experience. I'm going to list off some questions and hope I find some answers here. As you can see, I built a casting deck today, my plan was to build what you see in the photo and eventually just add the second piece (with carpet) to give it that flush look. After removing seat, its clear that water is in the foam block under the seat, what can I do about this without creating a headache? I'm trying to come up with a solution so that I have the option of full flat casting deck, or front seat installed for second person to fish with me. There are a ton of little screw holes around the boat, can I just JB weld and sand them flat? The drivers seat came loose last time I was out, bolts were not holding and they are just big holes now. You can see from the photo, what is my best option for adding seats that will actually stay put? Any insight is appreciated and I will continue to update with photos. [/QUOTE]
