Hi all, I tried searching and couldn't find what I need. I have a '78 Terry 1542 tin rig that I am redoing for some pond fishing. All the old plywood flooring and transom were rotten, I am replacing floors and front casting deck but for the rear I am not putting in a raised deck. My question is how can I mount the pedestal base to the 1/2" plywood floor? Should I cut a 3/4" square say 12X12 and screw or bolt this to the 1/2" and then mount the pedestal mount to it or?? I haven't installed the 1/2" floor as yet it is cut and will be painted by weekend. I just don't think the 1/2" is strong enough to mount the pedestal base The style pedestal I prefer is the type that has the hole in it for the 3/4" rod that attaches to seat. Thanks for all your ideas and help. Mac
