seat brackets

Anyone got any pics or any ideas where to get some brackets for seats? Mine are screwed into the stringers through the bottom of the seat in a daytona 21, and they come out every time i'm out. I'm thinking angle aluminum brackets and bolt seat to that? What do you guys do? Thanks!

I just bent these 1/8" steel "brackets" and bolted them through the stringers, then bolted the new buckets to them.
You could do the same with your existing seats I imagine.
(I ended up glassing new wood on after these pics were taken, the old wood was just too ugly from all the screw holes)

My old seats also just screwed into the stringers, spun the boat one time and the driver side tore right off.

Thank you for the replies. THATGUY, I have that set up exactly like that...and that's someting i think i will do. Brotherwolf, i saw those brackets earlier, very very nice, but i have room to walk in between the two front seats so those wouldn't work. Shorter versions on each side would. Thank you

It's pretty quick and easy, and you can rock the boat and trailer with the seats and they don't budge.
I used 5/16 stainless bolts for the through bolts and the seat bolts.

heres what i came up with for my 21. hope it might help ya.
