An adjustible pedistal & a small butt seat. I just lean up against it while running the foot control. It leaves room for 2 up front to get around.

I keep two types of seats in the garage. If I'm crappie fishing, I take a seat with a back because it is verticle fishing. If I'm bass fishing (do it occassionally), I use a leaning post because it is easier to cast for long periods of time.
If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles

I have 2 butt seats that are almost new. Think I paid $20 each at academy and never plan on using them. If you want one of them let me know and I'll make you a great deal on one of them. Not sure if you ever fish Lewisville but pm me if you do and I can meet you somewhere.

Bolt you a recliner down on the bow and mount rod holders to each armrest. A beach umbrella mounted to the back wouldn't hurt either.  On a more serious note - when are you going to get that boat in the water? I'd like to hear about your first trip out and how you did. You can fix the boat up how you like it as you go along, but don't stop fishin while you're working on it. Let me know!
