Installing thwart and seats

Today I installed the thwart and seats.  When I bought the seat hanging hardware, I remembered that the picture of the parts kit that you can buy in a marine supply store showed plastic bolt covers, so I found some of those in addition to all the bronze hardware at my local ACE hardware store.  It's a nice finishing touch.
The weather is too gray and it is raining so I will not be able to put her in the water for another few days, but I can sit in her and imagine!
