    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.

  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

What did you retrofit your back to back seating with?
 
Seatting

Hi Sam,

The seat came standard from factory. A frame with 2x2 was made with the inside dimensions of the frame of the console and then then console was dropped on top and then screwed were used where the teak trimming on the bottom to screw into the 2x2, you can see it in the first photo on the floor of the fly bridge. When I took it apart it was easy cause all the wood was practically rotted out.
 
Ah yes. I have the same boat and flybridge seating arrangement. I also am thinking of getting rid of back to back seating and changing flybridge to perhaps include captains chairs. What did you do with your flybridge once you took the back to back seating out?

I am also thinking of doing something similar. I want to ditch the back-to-back seating on both sides, put in a proper Captain's chair, and then install an L-shaped bench on the port side, maybe a storage locker on the stbd side.

Please post more details/photos of your project if possible!
 
This is a classified ad by the OP to sell the seats.

It would be better to discuss seating options and opinions in a separate thread. Thanks.

Good luck with your sale, usafoto.

Interesting.. our ‘81 34 LRC has two forward only benches which work well on the flybridge but front ‘Captain’s seat is short to where you want to put feet on the dash or stand up, vs sitting for any length of time.
Looks great, but not super comfy.
 
some of the pontoon boats seating options work well for flybridge seats. Lots of sizes and shapes available, no wood bases and weather proof. Bass Pro shops and others sell these.
Google "Pontoon boat furniture" .

But it looks so... "pontooney"

Based on previous experience it holds up to the weather like a pontoon does.. Not well.

I'm going to build an L shape bench out of wood, coat it with fiberglass, and attach it to the actual flybridge(fiberglass). Should be easy enough because I can measure and do the work at home.

Right now I use beanbags and folding chairs and if i'm being honest it works very well just doesnt look the part.
