Does any one have pic of a fishing chair, mounted on anchor locker lid, or any thoughs???? I'm thinking of replacing the lid with 3/4 " treated plywood and then mounting a fishing chair up there, along with a trolling motor. mike

Here's one I installed on a friend of mines Montauk 17.
We used a Springfield Chair out of an Outrage but still available new.

Mike
I looked at doing that but I decided to mount it to the wall in front of the anchor locker. It has worked great because I can open the locker with seat in place.

To clarify you can open and access the anchor locker with my setup and the seat acts like a counter balance weight. You also avoid drilling into the gelcoat with this method.
