I think Sue at Twin Cities Marine, advertised on this site, can help you. She is extremely knowledgable and willing to help.

Thanks for the info but I did talk to Sue a few days ago and she had no idea. She said she had never seen this seat. She is aware of it now but could not help me. I think I'm out of luck and might have to try to make one myself. If anyone else knows anything please help. Thanks

Sorry about that but I have seen them around and seems they were about $800. I suspect you will get some leads soon.

Thanks but could not find it on eBay. My whaler is a 1973 outrage19. The bench seat I'm looking for has no padding and no back support. The gas cap sits on the back side of it. Its fiberglass straight bench seat from gunnel to gunnel. Like an aluminum stadium seat but fiberglass.. I'd put a few pics up if I new how... Thanks

That's similar. That one has a base on both ends. I'll try to post some pics

The seat I need, connects to the back lip of which it rests (back) and supported by a stainless support under the front of the seat to the floor of the boat. Simple rail support. Must also connect under the gunnels on the ends. How do you place a pic on here. Sorry I'm new.

Some years may have different parts.
To verify your year, what is your Stencil #000?? or #000???

I'm sure he means this factory original part (as seen in my 1975 outrage 19), specific to the classic 19' Outrage and Revenge boats.

If you click the backward arrow, you can see six more detailed photos of this cross bench. It is quite narrow, and has limited function as an actual seat.
They are no longer made, and it will be difficult to find one except on a salvage basis or from an owner of one of these boats who has removed it. Probably about a one in one hundred chance at best.
If your boat is missing this item, you may want to consider an upholstered Whaler stern seat, with the rounded back corners for this location and conceal missing elements of the boat. it actually was a factory option, and was installed right over the fiberglass bench you are missing. One can be purchased from Anderson in Titusville FL. Be sure to give them the EXACT width required.

Thanks for the info. I talked to Anderson and they do not have them either. Maybe someone on here is not using theirs??? Thanks for the info.
