[QUOTE="Flatbotm, post: 208054, member: 6226"] Even though the previous owner had done some mods that made the boat look good from afar there were lots of flaws. The front deck was propped up with some 2x4s and 4x4s that ran right thru the hatch door. The front had no seating options. I constructed a new front deck from good ole southern yellow pine tongue and groove, glued and screwed with stainless hardware. I created two compartments one for my fuel tank and the other for everything else.

The seats were on sale for $26. Cheap! The seat mounts and posts were not so cheap.
