Dennis,
Very interesting, I wonder what the overall length of the seats was. He definitely saved a few inches by staggering the heights of the backrests. I'm sacrificing the aft facing seats for the rod holders and open deck space. I think on the 21 the windshield may have been a little more fore, better accommodating the additional seating. I'm trying to devise a cantilevered seat that slides out over the aft end of the cooler and slides back under the port seat to access the cooler. Not sure if it will work, but I'm drawing it up. Also blew the twin auxiliary tanks idea and settled for 1 tank under the helm and will just carry the other on the cabin floor in front of the main tank. At 19.5" my 6 gal. tanks placed thwarts ship would force the pedestal box to be about an inch wider than I was comfortable with. It doesn't seem like much but with two or 3 guys tugging on tuna or CA yellowtail, that little extra protrusion would be a stumbling block as I see it. I'll try to get some progress pics up if I make any progress. Sometimes I feel like I'm in Congress
