The above links are the seat configuration currently. There isn't a salvage
yard for hundreds of miles from here or I would be there!!

So I guess the question now is....Remove the "box" install pedestal...or
pedestal on top of the box after reinforcement.

And where to I search for the pedestal and seat?

Thanks again!!

In the past I have seeked the wisdom of this forum with great success. I
am once again seeking some direction. I purchased a 1990 Maxum 19 ft last
year. The only thing I dislike about the boat is the seating. It has the
folddown seats on both sides. I do not mind the seats anywhere except at
the wheel. It is an extremly uncomfortable seat. I continually had to
prop cushions under me to see. I need to change this while she is in
storage. Where do I go to find ideas? Maybe removing the seat and
installing a captain chair on a pedestal? Looking for ideas, where and
how tos.

Thanks all!!

Well, for the fun of it, you might remove the seats from their boxes,a
nd get an over all view of the situation. Then if you decide to go
with captain seats, you can look at all kinds of online places.
Here's a place that specilized in boat seats:

Overtons:

Iboats.com

http://www.iboats.com/Boat_Seats_Pon...view_id.473663

Theres' all kinds of places. even Ebay.

You seem to have a big problem with queers man. They are just people
like the rest of us, did you have a problem with one or something? I
mean, I won't stoop to calling names as you do, but it must have been
pretty bad...

You can get replacement seats and supports through Boater's World,
West Marine or even Bass Pro Shops.

I agree with your idea. Remove the seat from the console side and replace
it with a pedestal and bucket seat. West marine and others have generic
bucket seats and pedestals. If you look around you'll see that the
"upgrade" interior configuration for most small runabouts is two bucket
seats, bench seat, and a sun deck.
