Hi Stan and welcome

What RWilson2526 says makes a lot of sense, especially the part about a higher base. Another thing to think about would be 6 helm type seats, 2 in the very back (one on each side of the boat and 4 up front in two rows. Two on the port side and two on the starboard side. You could also make the seats removable, like they have on bass boats where the pedistal sits down into a socket mounted on the deck... that way you can remove the seats when they are not needed for more room.

Red skys at night...

You could get creative and seat a lot more than 6!


I think just using the standard two back to back and loungers two seats wedged between the engine cover and the sides. That is if this is an I/O boat. If it is an outboard, maybe one of those cooler/fishbox with the back rest seats would fit nice.

Here's what I like to use when additional seating is needed...the main reason is the versatility...sit 'em in the boat when needed, lift 'em out when not...



Very comfortable and stable in seas...have been in choppy stuff in near-shore situations w/no tipping...wide-stance footing...they come in less expensive aluminum or little higher dollar stainless...

Reel is correct, I now have the world of fixed seating on my boat, however when I beach her on the sand bar and Islands, I wish I had some portable seating. So the choice is yours, I am scavenging Craigs for chairs like Reel posted I will buy one or two maybe if the price is right.

I gotta note here I don't let these out of the boat for use on the sand ...one reason they last so long...we put some upright beach chairs and loungers in the cuddy to use on the beach...
