1st Post, just bought a 1981 16' Seaswirl with 120hp omc and cant figure out how to pull the back to back seats out. I have had boats most of my life, and they all lift up and pull out into a lounge but these seem to be locked tight. Passenger side on the seat facing rear, has a support peg and when it is turned on a hinge has a gear like piece of steel that meshes on the hardware attached to the (what appears to be) a sliding mechanism kind of like a file cabinet only flat that i think the seats slide on. It doesn't matter what i push or pull they dont release the seat. drivers side doesn't have one but it may have been broken off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks..Ken in Oakley CA on the Delta
