[QUOTE="FishinsMyLife, post: 265762, member: 95"] I'll probably pick up another 2 sets of seat bases; one for a passenger on the back bench and one on the front. There's not a whole lot of leg room for a forward facing passenger up front, but I want to keep the open layout. I don't really want to sacrifice any floorspace for a deck/extension. I'm going to price gunboxes from the factory (or see if I can pick up a used one), or I might get a welding shop to fab me up one if that'd end up being cheaper. I intend to use this boat for hunting (ducks and geese) and as a base vehicle for turkeys and deer, so the gunbox will actually hold guns, but it'll obviously double as storage for lifejackets, tools, and the like. The first owner glued carpet down on the rear benches and "pods" as well as the front deck. The previous owner ripped it up, but an obnoxious amount of glue residue is left. Any suggestions on what to use to get it up? Acetone? I've been working at it with a putty knife, but that's extremely slow, hand-cramping work, and it's hard to keep from scraping up the green paint at times. [/QUOTE]
