Many of us build our own seats.
But I just wanted to bring up one aspect of building these, especially for solo boats. I've always struggled trying to position the seat at the right spot. I know A sliding seat works great, for when you need to adjust for different loads. That's fine, I just didn't want to get that involved, building seats.
So my solution was to build a big enough seat, so I could just move forward, or back in the seat, and still be comfortable.
Here's a pic of a seat made to Bell's canoe specks(the small one, and one I make for my solos.
