[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 419463, member: 15636"] What's on the existing seat, anything? FWIW my 12' tin has nice wood seats and when I went to refinish them, it was just backing out the SS oval head screws. Taking the wood off, the wood was just placed over the tin bulkhead framing, which was full of foam. There was a turned 1" lip of tin all the way around the top of the seat frame and in a few spots - where the screws would go - someone (factory? OEM?) had placed or glued some 1" square stock pieces about 3" long. Some of the holes were well worn, where my screw wouldn't get a bite, so I just filled the existing holes with some waterproof 5-minute epoxy and broken pieces of toothpicks. Worked like a charm! Get the picture? [/QUOTE]
