Default seat base box

My V20 which I inherited from my Dad will be coming out of the shop soon with a brand new 4.3 liter v6 Mercruiser 190 h.p. I am excited to get her out after a fairly long period of dormancy. I need to replace the port side back to back lounge seat--the wood has rotted out. I would love to replace it with a seat mounted on a fiberglass or king/star board box. I have seen seats from Springfield Group called flip backs that I really like. I have searched the net to find a box like I want to no avail. I have a similar one on my Formula with the helm seat on the front and the back has a hatch to access the enormous amount of storage in the box. Any ideas on where to find such a seat base would be appreciated.

there have been a million guys ask where to find one of those (including me) and no one can for a decent price.

So good luck and if you find one please let us know. ;)

You know what? It just dawned on me. I am selling my Formula, so I am going to remove the box from it, put in a nice pedestal helm seat, and put the box in the V20 with a flip back seat so people can face aft!

That is hammers seat box that came with the boat. Don't know who, what or where.
There's a little better picture but I can't remember where it is.
