So this auction shows up on Ebay for the hardware ONLY from these folding seats that are in a Glasspar Citation boat.

Would you believe, that the hardware only, hinges, brackets, etc sold for $100??

Well, this got us to thinking, maybe folding seats similar to these are what we need. We can put them down when we have more than 2 or 3 in the boat and we can fold them up to travel and when we fish. Cool, now how does one re-create these seats.
