[QUOTE="Cdwa_78, post: 401469, member: 20309"] Gonna do some modifications to make it a little more fishing friendly. Thinking about building boxes under the seats to hold foam and storage. The original ones were sealed tight until someone drilled into them now they hold water. Gonna add a floor in the front and raise the seat just a little to make it more comfortable to bow fish for bass. Don't want to add much weight but I want to make it easier for me and the family to fish small lakes. I'll have to save up for a motor. I was actually thinking about cutting the original seat pan down and flipping it over so that it created a base for my new storage bench seats. It would go from seam to seam and then build oak plywood boxes to set on that pan. 3 chambers in the boxes each side for foam and center for storage. Then use aluminum angle to replace the original seat and allow for a hinged lid for access. Probably a 1x12 oak plank for the lid and fishing seats attached to that [/QUOTE]
