I would like to update my boat to the new small cylinder removable kind but I can't get the screws or bolts out, got them loose but not out. The cylinders for the old style are outrages in price. I don't want to tare up my step up bow decking and rear bilge door trying to get these things loose. I thought about drilling the heads of the bolts off and grinding the studs down flush.
. I was originally told by a family member (whom deals in pontoon boat upholstery and rebuilding), that the pedestals were anchored by wood screws, he was wrong in this case.
