1972 20' SF Leaning post?
 

Hi gents. I purchased a 1972 20' SF a few months ago and have been adding stuff to her to make her more comfortable. First off it didn't come with any type of console seating so I've been using my 105qt Yeti as a seat which to say the least is less then comfortable. Which brings me to my question. What leaning post (Rocket Luancher) with back rest, preferably w/ a removable backrest, do you guys recommend? A buddy of mine said not to do one as it took up a lot of room in the rear of the boat? Told him it was a leaning post or a cooler with a backrest. He had no comment as he is a hardcore fishing guy and would probably have a live well set there. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Edit: Can't post pics as of now because I'm stuck in the D.R. and the internet is skechy. But I will post some pics of the boat when I can. :D

I got the 00395. And it looks like free shipping right now. Love it. Best $500 I ever spent on my 20 SF. I was doing the same thing you were doing with the cooler. The leaning post is night and day comfort wise. I'm a big fisherman too but I gladly sacrifice the deck space for a seat with a cushion any day

I like this one.

Birdsall builds nice stuff.

Those leaning posts etc. look like very reasonable deals. I recently re-did my leaning post and added the back rest which is a nice improvement. I mounted 4 I-Fly fly rod holders to the back of the back rest. this made the rods handy and they do not bother anglers fishing out of the stern. I wish I had the under seat storage.

cutting edge, good stuff...I bought one in fla , at a boat show for my 23,and they shipped to NY by greyhound bus. under seat storage and removable backrest.Great addition to any boat, good people and good product !

Whoops on posting in wrong section.
 

Thanks for the advice. I'll look into it more. I'm stuck in the Dominican Republic and Internet is skechy here.

Score!
 

Here's what I picked up tonight. Came off a 19' Mako. Got a killer deal on it. :D 4 rod holders with underseat storage. Only bad is that the storage box has a couple cracks wich is no big deal in my opion. Now on to finding a matching backrest.

Here are some pics of my final setup installed. I know they don't match but it really does serve it purpose.
