Hey guys - As you probably know I am always trying to perfect my ballast in my 87 SunSport DD which can be a challenge.
The rear bench seat is particularly tough. There is a top seat section and a base section that the top seat section sits on. In our older models the base is a wooden storage locker. It is divided into three sections to support the weight of someone sitting in the seats.
It is possible to remove the dividers, rebuild the seat base and put a sac inside. However, the space is small and when full the sac only holds about 200-225lbs. When it gets full, the seat cushins pop up. Also, there is some wasted space between the rear back of the seat base and the gas tank that could be better used.
So, I would like to try and replace this rear bench seat base with a hard tank. This is standard on 1999 era Supra Launch boats. The top section has the same three piece divider under the seat cushion (Top piece) but the base itself is a big plastice tank and the top is not open for storage.
I have been looking for resources and links, and have finally come across some.
This thread has good discussion and sugesstions. I will repost some of the pics below.
