[QUOTE="Scott1298, post: 276948, member: 8416"] Alright, I've got a few days off so I have time to complete some projects. Yesterday I put a Wise sliding seat on my 10'. I tried to get the Slider G5s, but they don't ship to Canada. The positive side of using these is if I go out without the seat they are flat enough I can sit on them failrly comfortably. I had to cover the damage done by the clamp-on... but at least I knew where I needed to put it. I usually sat about 6-7 inches off center when operating the motor, so the 9" travel should be lots. I added a strip of 1.5" aluminum underneath one side, hopefully it will prevent more damage to the bench and give me a little clearance to slide, seams to work good. I bought another with the intent to put it on my 15' so I can move the seat back and forth between the two boats. I may wish I'd offset the back bracket an inch to the left, it would make installation of the seat a little easier if I could get the front in and then have an inch of seat to rest on before I had to "thread the needle" of the back bracket.
