Caption Tandem Set up Dimensions??

Post by nrjoel »

Hey there...just wanted to get some Dimensions off others boats. Trying to outfit a triple saddle.
1- End of Stern cap to center on Stern pedastal?? Whats the length?
2-end of Bow cap to center of Bow Pedastal?
3- Thinking of making the middle pedastal removable. Any pointers?

Thanks

I have a 2001 Caption with factory outfitted triple saddle. Here's what I measured.
1- End of Stern cap to center on Stern pedastal?? Whats the length?
56"
2-end of Bow cap to center of Bow Pedastal?
65.5"

I took the "end" of the cap to mean the pointy side.

There are 1" wide wooden thwarts behind the saddle positions centered 72" from the bow and 49.5" from the stern. I assumed the center of each saddle to be 6.5" forward of the thwart's center line.

Hope this is useful.

Dave
