[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 302105, member: 7544"] OK, so I saw this picture the other day and it gave me an idea for a mod to my brothers boat. As it turns out it might be the same sort of thing that would suit your needs to be able to move front to back but still have a seat for rowing from. Anyways, I stole a picture from Ringo Steele and used it to do my planning with. Hopefully, he won't sue me for copyright or whatever. But thanks for the pic Ringo. :mrgreen: So you take your seat that you're wanting to remove and modify it to look like Ringo did on his boat. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Walkthrough.jpg"]48196._xfImport[/ATTACH] Then You take the piece of the bench top that you removed or what ever material you want and you make a replacement bench top. Now attach it at one end with a hinge so that it overlaps and rest on the stationary portion on the other end. Then you can just flip it up and out to the railing to allow you to walk from front to back or lower it back in place to sit on and row. Something like this. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Walkthrough1.jpg"]48197._xfImport[/ATTACH] Anyways, it was something I'm considering doing and thought it might give you an idea for yours. [/QUOTE]
