Do anyone have any dimensions for the bench seat that you can install on a BW Montauk 17ft. I am in the process of repairing the Montauk, great boat so far that I acquired but I need to make a bench seat and I was thinking of using marine plywood butt joined at the corners and then using West System epoxy to strenghten the butt joints along with some stainless steel screws placed into the butt joints. Any suggestion on how further I can strengthen the seat or do you think that that is adequate. The fuel tanks will be situated below the seat so it will have proper venting to the atmosphere.
Also for the drainage. What is the best tube to use ? I was think of using a fiberglass mat coated with epoxy. What are the views on this. ?
