Fiberglass boat seat box
 
Anyone know a place that sells or makes a box like this in MD/DE or VA?

Here is a box on eBay for $400.00 US, close to the size I would like. This box is 14.9"H X 32.6"L X 16.9"W

He will ship by air for $314 or by boat $190 from Australia, just not sure how well that would go.

If you are not looking for an exact match to an existing one, try calling Bill @ judge yachts. I know he offers a seat box with a livewell built in because his demo boat has it. Denton would be a lot faster and cheaper way to go; pick it up for a $6 toll and a tank of gas! :D

FWIW though, $400 for that box seems pretty reasonable. It's the freight and the wait that is a killer. Shipping by boat could easily take 2 months to get here! :eek: Good luck with the search.

Thanks Jeff,

Bill is going to take the measurements off the box he has.

The guy in Australia said shipping it by boat would take 8-12 weeks. I'm not in a hurry to do this, just planning my winter projects.

Did you ever find what you needed?

I looked high and low last year for one locally and found one to use but then decided not to use it. Its a different design from the ebay link you provided. They are almost impossible to find locally and I thought about making a mold out of mine to build and sell.


If interested I can get you the measurements and some pics.

I did find someone in North Carolina that has them. I made a wooden mockup using his designs and with adjustments, I still can't make them fit inside my boat. Guess I need a bigger boat! I was able to correct a problem with my pedestal that started me on this project in the first place.

Thanks

I made a wooden mockup of a seat box and can't make it fit inside my boat. The cockpit bolsters and the fuel tank hatch on the floor won't allow the size I want. Need a bigger boat! I was able to correct a problem with my pedestal that started me on this project in the first place.

Thanks
