[QUOTE="Butthead, post: 412033, member: 637"] Since those pictures I've changed the black pedestal to the pin style mounts. I attached an upside down base to the plastic slide then added an 11" post on top. With those two pieces plus the pin on the seat, I'm sure I'm over 16" high. I'm about 240lbs and it feels plenty sturdy. The slide is pretty close to the size of the track, so I've never had an issue with it wiggling or sliding while sitting on it. I have had it pop out while trailering over railroad tracks and very rough road, so DEFINITELY take the seat off when trailering. The other thing I did was build a removable deck to go over the batteries up front. Adds extra space for the bow fisherman and gets the batteries out of direct sunlight. [/QUOTE]
