CB great ideas - one problem though. I need to be able to easily slide the seat forward out of the way in order to access the primer ball at startup. If it weren't for that I'd definitely go that route.
About the tracks you mentioned. I don't know if you noticed but those are stainless steel. From the factory they come in plastic, which I didn't trust for my rod holders sake. I had a guy make these out of stainless for me using the original as a model. They turned out great! I just need 2 more now to replace the crappy plastic tracks that the cuddy door slides on. You can see them here. Someone did some damage to one already and used some epoxy to fix.
My daughter Ella...see the plastic tracks? These were just like the ones that holds the piece of starboard in the spashwell:
My niece Raegan...
