How to secure bow filler cushion boards

[cpditty]

Has anyone tried to secure the bow filler cushion boards? I am sure they were not intended for use while underway but sometimes we just want move around a bit while my wife lays up there. The boards tend to slide and come out when underway and my wife falls to the floor(laughing). This wouldn't normally be a huge issue but she spills her drink on the carpet every time and I am afraid one of these times it is going to stain. (hi honey, I love you)
Anyway, has anyone thought about this or have any ideas on how to fix this issue?

Thanks
CP

Not sure on the 200SD, but they kind of lock in place on the 240SD.

We haven't had any issues either.
So either get a bigger SD or a new wife.................:grin:

That is too funny, but the question now is what are you selling Scott the 240 or Kim:huh::lol::smt043:lol:

Far be it from me to get involved with either another man's boat or wife...I can safely address the board issue.

The 240SD has two plastic clips that sit inside the lower edge of the filler pad and keep it from moving side to side. If you imagine the board installed, and looking at it from the stern, the clips would be at the sternmost edge of the board, on the lower side, and press up against the fiberglass seat supports on both sides. Mine were broken and MM gave me another set, but I could have ordered them for about $10 or so I was told. I am not sure how your bow is set up, but if you put small braces on each side of the pad board, would that keep it from moving side to side, thus stabilize it?
