Fishing Boat

How would I attach a seat/bench to an old fiberglass hulled fishing boat?

I have an old Edson 16 ft. fiberglass boat which has been converted to a fishing boat with 2 captain’s chairs. I want to add a bench seat to the boat to be able to take the kids out fishing too but am not sure how to attach the wood framed bench (which I am planning on making) to the fiberglass floor of the boat. Does anyone have any ideas, suggestions, etc. I would assume that I could attach a wood framed bench to the floor using fiberglass/resin but I don’t know how to do that. Is there an easier way?

Quite easily,,, first, attach pieces of wood to the hull of the boat with fiberglass matt,cloth and resin. then, use stainless steel screws or lags to attach the bench to the wood. I recomend the stainless fasteners because they are just about rust proof.

Girls Girls Girls (1962) $9.98 Hawaii seems like an afterthought in Elvis’s second island outing. Half the musical numbers take place on boats (including the seasick-making title tune) and half in a Trader Vic’s-style nightclub, so there’s little good use of the exotic locale. There’s little use of that lovable dish Stella Stevens, either, who’s relegated to “other woman” duty as Elvis courts bland Laurel Goodwin. Goodwin’s a r…
