[QUOTE="bluegillfisher, post: 137873, member: 249"] The rear seat and tiller handle is no problem. I've only covered rear seat not extended it. I use a typical jon boat seat. Plastic folding one. The trolling motor is harder to reach it is on the far side of the motor from seat. I have thought about adding another base right in the middle of the rear bench seat but for the past two years it hasn't bugged me enough to do it. My setup when I fish is the livewell(cooler) is on the left side in back section. I have my fishfinder mounted on milk crate that opens and I keep a boat knife, air horn, and little bits of fishing junk it in. It sits right in front of me where I can see it. I have a large cooler that sits right behind the seat for drinks, and food. I have a fishing partner in the front of the boat. And I regularly fish with three boys (12,8, and 5). The boys and the dogs(two) and said fishing partner sit and fish from the front of the boat. I am looking at an 18 foot lowe crappie boat, but the $20,000 needed hasn't dropped into my lap yet. In the mean time I want to fish from my 14 foot and fix it up for resell. Thanks Marion [/QUOTE]
