Welcome Stevie, that will be nice when you finish it up. The stand alone benchs like the above pic may be the best setup and allow you the flexibilty to move it inside the boat where you need.
And if you have any twenty something super models to post pics of that help endear you to everyone on this board

Yeah. Welcome to the site.
Who cares about boat pics. We've got enough of them already.

Welcome aboard.

Vicariously, yeah that's the ticket.

Anyway, if you are handy with wood and power tools,
I'll bet you could build something.

Thumbs down

Stevie:

Here's a photo of a seat that I installed on my boat:

http://www.wellcraftv20.com/gallery/album06/H

It's very comfortable and has a lot of storage underneath. I installed a third tank (18 gals) there, and it still has room for spare oil, life preservers, rod holders, etc.

I bought the seat from West Marine:

http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/producte/10001/-1/10001/33813/377%20710%201302/1302/Lounge%20Seats/Primary%20Search/mode%20matchallpartial/20/Most%20Popular|1?N=377%20710%201302&Ne=1302&Ntt=Lo unge%20Seats&Ntx=mode%20matchallpartial&page=Categ oryDisplayLevel1&isLTokenURL=true&storeNum=18&subd eptNum=37&classNum=10952

I cut down the aluminum supports somewhat so that the back would sit flush with the base.

V20s are great all-around boats. Hope you enjoy yours.

Fitz

thanks fitz, thats exactly what i was looking for. i wish i had the money for a seat like that. I'm going to try to build something similar to that.

A little off topic but i noticed that you also have a 200hp on the back of your v20, what are you running for top speed?

47.5 mph, according to my GPS, at 6,000 RPM, which is the max for my engine. That's using a 14.5 x 18 SS prop.

I have another 14 x 20 prop that came with the boat, which I estimate would crank it to above 50 mph. I've never bothered to check it, though, because the other prop works so well for everything throughout the entire power range, and I think it's good to prop an engine so that it runs toward the high end of its RPM range. I rarely need max top-end speed, anyway.
