Salmon Assassin 10 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I currently have two lounge seats in the boat and want to pull one out and put in a captains chair. I cannot get underneath the floor to bolt down the pedestal so I not sure how I could mount one in. Suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites

flyman013 10 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If you have enough space below the floor, you can use toggle bolts and not have to access below the floor. I've use toggles before on my boat. They have "Never Drop" toggles from McMaster-Carr (mcmaster.com). They work great. Link to post Share on other sites
nickoftime 10 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 if you haven't taken the seat out look and if there's an access panel under it Link to post Share on other sites
JWheeler 10 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I put a nice captain's chair at the helm of my boat. My neighbor works at a fastener distribution company. I bought some heavy duty toggles that work awesome. It is the only way I would go. Still as stout as the day I installed. Link to post Share on other sites
