I hope it is just screwed. Problem is I don't see any screws yetI will be removing some of the carpet and also inside to see what's going on. I would love some more room behind me but also adding the new seat I can have some more height to see over the windshield.
I will get lot's of photos along the way and make sure I post them here

I keep looking at the ratty lounges in my 2252 Capri and wondering if there is a way to simply mount captains chairs on top of the boxes rather than removing them. As much of a pain those things are they do give valuable storage I need. Has anyone ever mounted captains chairs like this? I can't seem to find any pictures or mention of doing it this way. Any ideas or pics please do direct me to them as mine were starting to look cruddy a decade ago and they aren't getting prettier.

I thought about leaving the box as well but the reason why I am installing the seat is so I have more room to walk and such. We will be using the boat mostly for fishing.
On my 87 1750 it is glassed in. Not screwed.. But I got most of the box out now and just have to do some trimming and get ready for new base to mount.

I have a 88. I just did the deck in. Bad news, it's fiberglassed in. Good news, it's separate from the deck.
Here's what I did. I used a angle grinder, with a thin cutting disk. Cut as close to the deck as I could and then use a sanding disk to make it flush with the deck. You'll need to re carpet the deck. And cover everything in plastic, you'll get fiberglass dust everywhere.
