Jump seats for I/O cuddy

[nipper]

I want to add some seats to the aft portion of my 1991 V20 I/O cuddy. Any of you have seats back there on an I/O willing to take pix to show me how you set yours up?

I think Rick here on the site has some. or maybe it is Chesapeake724. one or the other......browse the gallery.

Nipper,
I`m going to my boat this w.e., I will take detailed pictures and post them here.
Actually, in the same pier where my V20 is, lives a guy who makes seats, canvas work and upholstery, right on the dock. He lives on his sailboat. Maybe I can ask him how much , and he can make them using my V20 for measurements, then ship them to you.

Thanks JJJ. I will look for the pictures. I am not sure yours will work because I have an I/O cuddy with the big engine cover. There is not very much room (only about 14 1/2") between the sides of the engine cover and the gunwales.

Sorry, missed the I/O detail. Will post anyways for others to see.

I use to use two coolers, I for got the size, I have one down basement I will have to look? But you can get the cushions all made at west marine for coolers, they work great and you can use the cooler for soda and snacks.

I have the same I/O but different year but the engine box is the same I have a piece of teak wood on each gunnel even (height wise) with the indention ( step) on the engine cover. Mine has a padded cushion with a wood bottom that sits on the teak wood and on the engine cover step, I have snaps screwed in to the gunnel and back panel (that the eng cvr sits against) where 2 straps are mounted to the seat that snap to these snaps to keep the seat from sliding forward and helps hold the persons weight.

Thanks, GarageNC. I had that same thought. That is much like the setup I have on my 20' Formula F-2 Sunsport. Were you able to use off the shelf seats or did you have to have them custom made?

hey nipple i have a pair of basic (blue) jump seats that i got from a west marine going out of business.
i just set em in there so i can have extra seating when i bring my parents, etc. . . . . but i aint got nothing holding em down. they just pop in and out.

Thanks, Tuna. So these seats fit between your engine box and gunwales?
