I had a 14' older V bottom Jon boat the I placed petastool seats in. Well I'm kinda cheap so I boat the 2 bases, seats and swivel bases at Wolly World. Didnt even think about needing hardware. Well along with cheap I am also lazy and didnt want to go to the local Hardware shop ( 1 mile down the road). So I got everything in ok but for the seats I didnt have the right screws to fasten them to the base. Sine my Father in law was going to be in the front and he weighs more than I do i put the bigger screws in his seat and for mine I ended up putting in some little cheapose. Well I went to set the hook on a monster Crappie and the front two screws popped out and with backwards mometum...... I almost went in. The back srews stayed in (some how) and I caught my leg on the cooler that was next to me. I almost lost My father in law due to him laughing himself almost into a heart attack.
