[QUOTE="gah319, post: 344835, member: 13154"] Your boat looks to be close to what I have, except that I am a 1452. The easiest way I found to take out the seats is to get a wood chisel place it against the tail end of the rivet and with a few blows from a hammer they shear clean off. The I used a nail set to punch out the head. My seats had the old white Styrofoam under them. Both had at least 2 mouse nests. Taking this out you will need to replace it with some other flotation material. I plan on putting 1 1/2 inch pink foam board between the floor struts and any other dead space I end up with. [/QUOTE]
