[QUOTE="Shoedawg, post: 412463, member: 13490"] Next up was cutting a hole for the pedestal base. I used a 2" Bi-Metal Hole Saw and punched right through the deck. [ATTACH type="full" alt="image013.jpg"]84539._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here is the 7x7 base in place. [ATTACH type="full" alt="image014.jpg"]84540._xfImport[/ATTACH] Side view of the pedestal base installed. This is a screw-in pin type. [ATTACH type="full" alt="image015.jpg"]84541._xfImport[/ATTACH] Wanted to see how it all looked together, so I threw the deck onto the boat. Note: The deck is sagging just a bit due to me not having installed the structural support yet for the deck, which I am hoping to have done soon. [ATTACH type="full" alt="image018.jpg"]84542._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="image019.jpg"]84543._xfImport[/ATTACH] I also installed a fishing rod holder. [ATTACH type="full" alt="image024.jpg"]84544._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here is one of the old seats that I just placed on top of the pedestal. Wanted to see how high the pedestal would raise and how the deck would look like with a seat on it. It rides pretty high (about 22" inches) but its an adjustable pedestal. Kind of nice to be able to lean/stand once in awhile, while fishing. I still need to install a cup holder (which came in yesterday).
