its hard to tell from the photos but I rounded all sharp corners and wrapped in glass, no air under the glass in the corners at all. since those pics I have sanded and filled all rough spots. ready for gelcoat, I'll probably roll on a few coats tomorrow after work! worked on the cooler insert today.
its been almost 3 years since I've had seats in the V, looking forward to sitting down and enjoying the ride!

Awsome! Let us know how the gelcoat works out. I plan to recore some hatches sooner rather than later and was thinking gelcoat underneath.

sweet boat. I love the color. I was thinking about adding something like your boxes to my boat this winter. Looks great! Are you going to be able to make it to the get together in 2 weeks? I would love to see it in person.

I like the seat box. I plan to build two for my V for fishboxes. Did you glass the boxes, then gelcoat over the glass? How much sanding was involved?

my drivers side seat is on a slider, makes a perfect leaning post and someone can sit also facing the other way. Or i can drop the seat and cradle myself in it as a leaning post.
