Lowe 175 fs jump seats

[Sammamish Lowe]

I see there are a few Lowe enthusiasts on this board. We purchased a nice 2005 175 FS with a 4stroke Merc late last summer for fishing and tubing with the kids. We have used it about 6 times over the winter and really love the way it handles rough water!

There are some design quirks with the interior and I was wondering if anyone has had the need to remove / replace the jump seats. They seem to be glued down!

Also, the boat didn't come with a ski pylon and we were wondering if anyone has a recommendation for an aftermarket unit.

Any help would be appreciated.
