I think I'm made of bad luck when it comes to working on boats. My 44 year old Lettman needed a new seat so I ordered a nice sliding seat. Unfortunately due to just having back surgery I never checked it. Months passed before I got to it. HOLY SWEARS (Lots of them) it was to narrow to fit and a day late to send it back. So I tried to make it work with lots of modifications but in the end it was too dang high and the back band was a good a$$ warmer. Did a lot of seat surgery and just couldn't get it down to the height I needed so ended up cutting the whole dang thing out which was a chore in itself with, again, a lot of swearing and a few cans of liquid courage to get through it.
So now it is back to the drawing board and definitely a new seat of some kind. Just the kind of mistake to piss ya off but stuff happens, I'm sure nothing like this has happened to any of you!. I do have a way to cob the seat back together for another boat so am saving it. Probably get lost along with McCrea's propane! Worst part is the hull needs to be washed out and it's winter here. There's enough metal dust in it to make a cat smile at at 16' 6" litter box!
