[QUOTE="Fish Taco, post: 98564, member: 1850"] Jamie, I'm loving this thing. What an odd looking duck with you and your son in it. You two just dwarf that thing. Now I know how folks feel seeing me in my 14 footer. On the flip side, what a sleeper!! 43MPH is nuts in what is/was a jon boat. Congrats on the work and thanks for the link to the seats on ebay. I'm a big man and I'm wondering how comfortable they are for you. I'm tempted to go with something a bit more robust. That plastic base looks like it will just bend when I put my 285lbs in it. What type of work do you do? I suspect you machine or fabricate (access to a lathe at work). Is that right? On the constructive criticism side, I'm concerned with your steering set up. I'm wondering if something can't get caught under that plate and jamb the steering. That area will be left open, right? Its very close to the floor. [/QUOTE]
