[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 388072, member: 13599"] LOL no, you are not an idiot !! LOL I did the same thing when I built a Lazy Susan for a big wood dining table. had to drill 4 holes through a perfectly good table top to mount the swivel base. But, you are in a BOAT - with the same situation. and you definitely don't want to drill any unnecessary holes........ I see these seats at sporting goods stores but can't remember if they had a special slide-in and lock type of mechanism that goes with the swivel base. I will be interested in knowing how this one turns out for you. can you post a photo of the are you want to mount the seat & swivel ? some alternatives that come to mind is to mount the swivel base to the seat, then to a piece of 1/2" plywood then secure the plywood to the boat seat with whatever works for your application. Velcro is pretty aggressive stuff when used in large solid area. Soft adhesives such as silicone are semi-permanent - can be removed with sawing fishing line through it. [/QUOTE]
