Seat Boxes

[Mac_Attack]

I know it's not a new topic but the base on my back to back seats is rotten. *I'm thinking of making the base out of 3/4 " starboard. *I'd like to keep my back to backs but like to hear other's ideas.

My interior as it is now

Some of the changes I'd make

I'd also like your ideas on inside supports I'd need. *Reel I'm looking for your input!

Thanks Billy Mac ;D

The new ones are all plastic or composite and most likely cheaper than the Starboard. Now if you want a custom job, that's a different story.

I like those seats alot, but hate that they are so low to the floor. :-/

I had the same problem Mac, make two while your at it.

[msbhammer]

No Mac....make three while your at it. ;D

When I do make it I'll keep detailed records via pictures and written plans. We'll see how it turns out and then maybe,I said maybe. Billy Mac ;D

Well I have used Starboard a lot and will be buying another full sheet this spring on the new stuff I will be building for the new boat!

Very easy Mac to use, but all has to be screwed toghter. Depending what you want for a tackle box in the seat it might be better to buy one alreasdy made and just cut hole and install.

I want coustom like the one CB and I buitfor the V and will go coustom again!!

Mac...I like your ideas about addin' doors and built-in tackle box...I made my boxes outta treated ply and covered w/ white vinyl..If I were gonna remake w/ starboard, I'd use 3/4" sides and top...MJ's right about screwin' it all together, so ya might wanna add some inside corner-cleats to beef up the corners...screw cleats to deck, then screw box to those cleats ..West has a thru-deck butter-fly type SS fastener that I'd strongly recommend over just screwin' to the deck...thy'll be expensive comin' from West, but use 'em unless ya wanna be repairin' it later...:party:
