I like the idea of the strapping to hold down the tank. Anything between the strapping and tank as a buffer or just metal on metal?
Seat height is tricky. I can make them 18" but that would match the gunnel/cap height and just be a really wide transom. Dropping them down the 5" gives something to butt up against a little. Literally. haha. I am thinking a little bit of safety is more important than full comfort for these.
I finally had a chance to play around with the samples of glass and resin yesterday. I made my working conditions sub-optimal on purpose. Good results with the 17 oz cloth and epoxy so I am comfortable proceeding with that combo.
