Seating Bases &
Custom Structures
Repaired or Built.

Seat bases crack at corners, hinge points and where they’re fastened to the deck, and once water gets in, any wood core inside starts to rot. We grind out the cracked or broken fiberglass, cut out and replace wet core so the crack doesn’t come back, rebuild with new laminate, and refinish in gelcoat to match.

A leaning post gets pushed, pulled and leaned on every time the boat moves, so its base and mounting points can loosen or crack over time. If yours wobbles or shows cracks around the base, we check the post and the deck beneath it, reinforce or rebuild the weak areas, and remount it so it’s solid again.

Seat bases and leaning posts often have unused room inside for tackle, a cooler or gear. We can cut in a new compartment with a hatch, or repair a cracked or leaking one, adding a gasketed lid and marine hardware so it stays dry and closes cleanly, finished in gelcoat to match.

Whether you’re replacing a base that’s beyond repair or changing your layout, a new seat base can be built to the height, footprint and storage you want. We fabricate it in marine-grade fiberglass, add storage, cooler space or tackle drawers if you like, reinforce the mounting points and finish it to match your boat.

Seats, posts and pedestals put a lot of leverage on a small patch of deck, and over time the fasteners loosen, the fiberglass cracks or water gets into the core. We repair the area, add a backing plate or extra laminate where the loads go in, and seal the fasteners so the mount stays tight and dry.
