[QUOTE="jwhitjr, post: 396053, member: 9994"] Hi, I am trying to finish a project that I started several years ago. Getting closer but still not there. I have an '75 era Sears 14' 48" aluminum boat w/15 hp Evinrude that I'm working on. It has a typical pair of bench seats that I have installed painted 2x12's on. I intend to put a pedestal seat on both but wondering how to space the section between the bottom of the seat and the top of the bench. Do any of you have any thoughts on the pedestal spacing and should both be the same height? In addition, the aluminum base is pretty standard with 6 -1/4" screw holes. Would you use SS wood screws or SS machine screws with a 'tee" installed from the bottom of the 2 x 12's? At age 65, I won't give it a lot of heavy usage. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
