George said there was a way to retrofit one of the platforms to the front of a 210. he said it wasn't something you would want to take in and out 10-12 times a day but that their is something that would go up there. I might have misunderstood him but I thought he said the guys at Merritt might know what I am talking about. Dick, do you know what he is talking about?

Let me know what you find out for if it is not easy to get, I can post the pictures (if I can find them on my PC) of the one that I made for our old 210 that worked pretty well. It was made of wood, had carpet on it, and was held in place (real easy to remove also) with a front bass style seat and pedstal. The front seat was held in place by having a 170 CC front seat post mount modifed and mounted to the present 210 front storage deck. Worked quite, did not move when crashing through the waves and after removal of the front bow rail, made for a real nice front casting area. I cooked up the idea after looking over a Scout CC at a boat show and if Triumph was smart, they would modify the present 215 mold to have a real forward casting deck
