[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 351318, member: 9169"] As I've previously mentioned, I needed to figure out a way to reinforce my bow seat mount. After talking with bassboy1 (Fish On Fabrications), who made my hatches, I went with some 1" x 1" tube to attach beneath my deck to the front 2 mounting holes of my seat mount. I still get some flex, but nothing like I did without the extra reinforcement. I'm 6'8", 275#'s so it would be tough to get it completely solid. Wanted to run the tube the width of my deck, but had to cut them short enough to fit into my factory "access panel". Still ended up with over 3' of tube.
