I am having tremendous difficulty removing the helm seats in order to refinish them. The only option I see is to remove 4 nuts from underside of each seat. The rear nuts are very difficult to access, so i purchased a long handled ratcheting box wrench. I was able to remove one passenger rear outside nut, but the others are very tough to get to. After a frustrating hour of knuckl-busting, I tossed in the towel. I would prefer not to pay to have them removed. Any advice would be appreaciated. I have previously done this on other boats without these issues.
