[QUOTE="RiverBottomOutdoors, post: 214468, member: 3912"] Cut a hole in the stern facing vertical face of my middle seat. I found two types of foam. Plain old white Styrofoam molded block on top of another type foam. I took out the Styrofoam and left the other. I'm using the space under the seat for more storage and it will make it easier to bolt my seats on. I was surprised how structural support the Styrofoam was. The seat sagged and was a little springing once the Styrofoam was removed. Cut the hole with a jigsaw. 32/inch toothed blade. Lined the hole with rubber trim that I found on https://greatlakesskipper.com/.
