[QUOTE="DownSouthGaBoy, post: 113586, member: 2218"] The front deck is only going to go from the front of the boat to about 3 1/2 feet back and the seat is going to be mounted directly to the deck with a swivel mount, not a pedestal. I figure that should definitely be low enough. I have never really liked sitting up high when i fish. I just like to prop my feet up and kick back. The one in the center of the boat will be on a pedestal that is about 15" high. This height puts the seat cushion just a little higher than the top edge of the boat sides. That is enough for me to be comfortable if I decide I need to sit in the middle and spin around. And the rear seat will obviously be mounted to the rear bench. So the highest thing in the boat will actually be the top of the steering wheel when you fold the seat backs down. [/QUOTE]
