: I think I have my Walmart boat seat with the back cut off and the bottom
: fitted to the hull contour about finished. I used a piece of 1/2"
: pipe insulation to finish off the back where I made the cut. I used this

: back. I will velcro the seat to the hull. You can't beat the price. Seat,
: insulation and velcro about $12.

Great idea. Did you really buy that from Walmart? I thought I saw a post where you had chalked off the area for the seat. Maybe that wasn't you. It looks good. Doesn't take away from the beautiful craftsman ship put into the boat at all. I only have one regret, and that is the rest of the boat is out of the frame.
