[QUOTE="baptistpreach, post: 82835, member: 832"] I also mounted my seats using toggle bolts with washers. For some reason the toggle bolts I found all had a philip's head on them, so I got hex bolts so I don't have to deal with stripping them out when I'm tightening them. I might post a little tutorial on how I did it for those who are on my shoes after I've fully tested them out with a... um... heavier occupant. I also used my shop vac to clean out all the junk that's in it, and then washed all the dust the Oklahoma wind has blown in. I picked up a second battery from Wal-Mart to power my Trolling motor, and FF that will go in the back. I finished painting the bottom of the rear hatch and hmm... what else... Oh, I also tried painting my transom wood on the suggestion of one of my members, but I gotta say it didn't turn out as good. I installed my new winch strap for the trailer, and put my new transom tie downs on the boat too. I pushed the winch as far back as I could to have as much of my boat as I could sitting on the bunks, and now all I've left to do is brace the livewell so it won't move and put a little carpet on the bottom to protect the plastic, install my cabinet door catches that will hold my 2 tackle storage boxes on, and then FINALLY put the hasps on and the hinges on everything, cut the livewell door.... really, I'm so close its not funny. I figure I MIGHT need one or two more hours. I also have an order in for vinyl lettering that will be maroon with a cool font for the registration letters and boat name and a decal that will convert my boat from a Monark to a SeaArk!
