In boat, showing how it attaches.

If anyone is building one and wants more pics, let me know.

Now on to Front Seats...

My current Short Pedestal Bucket Seats have a total length of 22". The veada h100 is 26". http://veada.com/helm-seats/helm-seat-hs100.html

The attwo0d Avenir Sport is 24", but I dont like it as much. http://www.boatingseats.com/boat-seats-attwood-avenirs.aspx

Does anyone know where I can get a smaller seat?

Also, both those seats just bolt on to the current pedestal I have right? Or are they meant to be on the Floor.

Thanks again for any help.

90% of seats will have the same bolt pattern on the bottom with the 1/4-20 wellnuts. The only exception I have come across is the big reclining seats.

Progress looks good :up:

Your seat frame looks great! :up:

I like the way you contoured the top of the seat back to match the deck. 8-)

Alright. The seats finally came back. 4" was too thick of foam for he bottom. Should have been 2 or 3". The back could have been 2". The Guy who did the upholstery was confused and made the foam go over the top as well, so it sticks up over the top of the boat by 3". This will be fixed. But for now, here are some pics. It looks pretty good. It was made to match the front seats exactly. It does. I just wished that style matched the boat better. Oh well, its hard to get any new stuff that matches a 25 year old Style. I went with a smoothe back seat instead of having hte neck bubble that it originally had. It will look better when the top of the seat is even with the deck. Front seats are not in yet. I had to get the Seat posts cut shorter as the new seats were way higher than the Original ones. They are just sitting on the floor int he pics.

Now that I have the Seats in I will attach the Base to the floor. I will just use a Bracket that will hold it in place. like a couple "L" brackets screwed to the Floor that will keep it from moving, but allow it to be removed if needed.
