[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 362214, member: 5461"] Boats like that very rarely have plywood backing under the rear bench. Its likely that there is just foam underneath the aluminum. Its going to be very difficult, almost impossible, to gain access to the underside of your rear bench, especially considering there is a huge block of foam in there. Fortunately, that aluminum is probably pretty thick and could support a seat base without additional bracing underneath. Attaching it will be the problem. I've had luck with actually welding a base down, or using large heavy duty pop rivets. [/QUOTE]
