1981 25xf seating options

[250xfwbumps]

i have a 1981 25 express fish with the two pedestal seats, has anyone done anything with a side by side seat set up a the helm so access to the cabin is improved.  any ideas, i was thinking of building something out of wood.  but if there is a prefabed product that looks good and wont break the bank i would like to know.  

i just bought this bought does anyone have some background info on them.  it has a 225 evinrude rides real nice.  center floor board is a bit soft.  

also any ideas on where i could find a hardtop for this model.

Yeah, having that port chair there never left much direct access into the cabin.  Have to walk around the chair with everything. Same with the Explorer model I have.  Your seats are mounted directly to the floor, correct? I guess there is no reason why you couldn't build a double chair out of something.  On the Explorers, the seats are on mounted on top of baitwells/coolers though.

Getting a t-top would be custom.

yea the seats are mounted to the floor, with long pedastals
