[QUOTE="deleted___account, post: 25440, member: 192"] Ok guys need some input here. Due to some uncontrollable life situations, I'm unable to buy the new shiny boat this year. It sucks. The good news is I have a boat. We're dealing with a 1980's 19.5ft Openbow Silverline inboard that has less than desirable seats in it, the old laydown style or whatever, I think you know what I'm referring to. So with that said, I'm thinking about switching these out and putting normal pedestal seats in to make it somewhat normal of a boat. The only thing it would be missing then is a livewell. Is this a huge project by any means? Anybody done this? Where can I get the stuff (Minot area)? Next question.......This sob is heavy, and needs a trolling motor put on front of it. At the current time I have a rear mounted electric unit right on the lower unit. It does not offer up the best boat control once there's a little bit of wind, infact it's terrible. I gotta get this thing to be controllable and comfortable as my back is wrecked. How big and how many volt system should I slap on it for a trolling motor? [/QUOTE]
