Distance between bases for side by side seating

[kjsmith97]

For those of you who have a ranger crappie edition, tracker TF, Lowe crappie boat, war eagle or other boat with three bases on the front deck, how far apart are your bases? I would also like to know the width of your front deck if you don't mind. I have tried to find this information on the web and have been unsuccessful. Santa brought me a livescope for Christmas (guess I was on the good list!) and I am considering adding two bases to the deck of my 1985 Charger 170v so that my buddy and I can both sit on the front deck. My deck width is 55 inches and I have milennium b100 seats which are 20 inches wide. I have considered a sidekick or dub-l-seat, but the bases are less than $30 and I don't think I want to step over the arm for those configurations and I'm not sure it will fit my Springfield base. It seems like it would be cheaper and easier to just install additional bases, but would requires 2 3.5 inch holes in my deck so I want to get it right the first time. Thanks in advance for your time and help!

I would go with side-kick. With older boat I would be afraid of compromising the strength of deck area by drilling 2 more holes like you have now. Side-kick sells with that type seat mount when ordering.
Check out E-Z Poleholder on Sponsor add section. Gene is a great guy and will save you lots of money.
Good luck
