In Response To: Foam Seat & Backrest (Grant)

Grant:
Here is a picture out of the boat (the boat in the picture is Joe's, not mine). The seat back attaches to a pillar that provides pressure between the hull and deck. This pillar connects to the back and top of the seat bottom so that it is all one piece. The pillar is cut so that it sits against the bulkhead. It is a very stable setup. I took a bunch of pictures last night of the seat from various angles. If there is any interest, I can post them to one of my sites.

Regards,

Marcel
