13' Gheenoe Seat Question

1822 Views 13 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  FATBABY
Hello All,

I recently purchased a 2015 13' Gheenoe and the front and rear bench have these rusted screw hole spots where I am assuming a seat had been attached previously? What is the best way to remove the old and replace with newer as I would like to add a seat for my kid on the front bench? I am new to this whole boat thing, so I am cautions when doing some things so I don't personally ruin my small investment.

Also, what would I look for to replace the rusted ones once removed? (ie... What are they called?)

Thank youin advance for any help or knowledge.

Look on West Marine or Boat Outfitters for a folding seat. Make sure to use stainless steel for any screws, bolts, nuts, washers ect. that you need to mount it. It’d help to see the whole boat to see exactly what would be needed.

You could go multiple routes a regular folding seat, a cushion like you have in the back or a raised seat. We have a raised front seat on our 15 classic. I’d probably suggest a regular folding seat. Haven’t noticed much less stability from adding the raised seat but it might affect the 13 more.

Yeah I am thinking a folding seat up front for my little one would probably be best. He would sit better for longer periods I would think. More time he sits and enjoys the breeze, the more fishin I can do from it. LOL!
I think it the best option. Standing up and fishing in the gheenoe is sometimes a challenge but not to hard if your young and agile like me.
