: I have a Happy Bottom seat from CLC that I am mounting in my soon to be
: finally done Redfish Silver. I would like to glue some strips of velcro to
: the bottom of the seat with corresponding strips in the cockpit. I
: attempted to glue the velcro to the seat with a clear glue I found that
: was supposed to work on cloth and smooth plastic surfaces, and is
: waterproof, and it was a complete failure, the velcro slipped right off.
: Has anyone found a glue that adheres to the rather slick surface of these
: seats? This is a sealed slick surface, not a rough surface like minicell.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm starting to think that the velcro wasn't a great idea. The goal was to make the seat slightly adjustable fore to aft, and make it removable to aid in cleaning out crud. I think I will try paddling it a few times without attaching the seat, then glue it down without velcro when I have determined the best position. Couldn't find the barge cement, but goop is available everywhere.
Thanks again.
Ken
