Thought about just building her her own boat, but it would probably run better than mine :banghead:

Then I would be too damn big to get in it :mad:

probably should have told you it is a lightweight  drag hull (620# lay-up) that is used for F-ing off, it has 7/8" thick solid mahogany stringers that will need to be sandwiched between two rails, and need to be very low profile.

I used an adjustable seat bracket off of a ditch witch, mainly cause I have a buddy that worked at ditch witch. It works great. To make them low profile I could have mounted some aluminum angle to the sides of the stringers, and mounted the slides to the angle so that the seat hovered just a little over the stringer. But, I didn't want to get that involved into the process. Here's a pic.



Good luck.
