Looks like a fun spring project for my 2 acre pond as I have the barrels and plenty of scrap lumber and with a few minor modifications, such as a swivel pedestal seat, cooler and cupholder, I see a project in the making!

I love DIY projects when I already have the materials so if I do this I'll report back with results. I tend to go for the obscure. I'm the guy that used to cruise the campgrounds and neighborhood on a motorized barstool. And Omaha, I'd mount a pedestal seat. I don't like the looks of that chair either! That thing would sure make pitching & flipping a lot easier than a bass buggy or row boat. PS - thanks, esshup for posting the pic! PB rocks! Last edited by Lovnlivin; 03/11/13 10:09 PM.
