Latest Crazy Idea

I most often fish by myself. I’m either in the bow or the stern, so I really don’t have any use for the middle seat. Got me to thinking…..

I had a extra seat pedestal in the archives as well as some scrap lumber and hardware. So I built a seat sized table that plugs into the middle seat hole. It’s big enough to hold my bait box, a pair of pliers, a hand drying rag, and my coffee cup. DISCLAIMER: I don’t know anything about wood working and all I have are a few simple hand tools so this assembly is ugly. But it looks like it may be functional. What do you think?

Nice.

Genius!!!!!

One thing I would add is something so you don’t have the coffee cup tip over!!👍

And here I thought this was going to be a table for the fly vise.

Looks very functional to me Steve. I would add a cup/beverage holder to it. I think you had a great idea.

By the way what model boat is that?

My coffee mug has a handle that fits snug right on the edge so I can just hang it anywhere. But yea, a cupholder would be an improvement.

The boat is a 1990 Lund Predator.

Cool thanks Steve.

Excellent!

Nothing crazy about ther that. Good job!

I can see it now,Rootski builds a cooler on a chair post with that table top hinged to it and sells the idea for a couple of million.
And we would never hear from him again lol

Nice work. I have often wondered why fishing boat companies don’t sell seat post accessories like this. Tables, rod holders, accessorie holder, etc etc I know there are som after market stuff but surprised Lund or whoever doesn’t make options like that.

You made a coffee table!

Looks good to me Steve,nice work.
Where is the fridge,coffee pot,and microwave going.

That looks great Dad! I love the idea!

Cool idea, could give it a paint job to match the boats interior and maybe some more drain holes.

If I only had the wood working skills to make something look that good I could screw up a 2×4. Looks great As Iowa boy said don’t forget us when you make your millions Great Idea!

Needs a fold out patio umbrella shade.
