    Stuck pedestal

    I put the seat pedestal in a vise today and was able to get the pedestal off. Pain in the neck but I got them apart. Got to rethink it before putting them back together.

(putting in a flat deck, pestal seats, live well etc) if you can afford it, get it. I'm in the same boat you are...

I was thinking of making a raised deck from the front bench to the bow, adding a livewell somehow in the middle bench and adding a floor. it was carpeted which I ripped out today. It hit 5o in northeast ohio today and I'm starting to...
