foam from sunbelt. It higher than giraffe vagina too.

I bet it is!  That is something I still have to buy to get my seats done, otherwise I have just about everything I need, except a willingness to get started. lol

How about a pic of the inside of the boat with the seats out.  I can't  believe that thing is put together like that.  Great idea if you aren't trying to save weight.

I'll get some boat pics for ya later today. Kinda depressing though, makes it look more like a project than a running boat.  I should set up a lawn chair and go make some passes. It will never be as light as is it right now. 60? Doubt it.

Dude, that's what Matt had to do to initially run his Ambassador. You wouldn't be the first guy to sit on a five gallon paint bucket just to get the boat in the water. lol.

From what Chad described his entire seating arrangement is built on a platform that is just "floating" in the boat.  It is not attached to the hull with any fasteners.  He can lift it out of the boat all in one piece including the floor seats and all.

Got busy today and didn't pics, maybe tomorrow.  The bucket pictured earlier actually mounts to the floor with a few angle brackets. They all pulled out and that's why it was sliding around.

There's a couple wrinkles that I'm not in love with but I'm hoping some heat and butt time will work those out.

That's looking pretty sweet Chad. I may want to borrow that machine once your done with it to try my hand at sewing. I have a machine but it's just a regular household type. I did the engine cover on my old VIP with it and it seemed to work ok. But I didn't sew any piping into it either.

That's some pretty crafty work you have going on there though. Impressive.

Just about done. Just a little cleanup.
