Cockpit bolster removal - Rick B - 11-14-2026
I have a 2005 36' Open and the cockpit bolsters are in need of re-upholstery. The boat has a tuna door and built in bait tank. How do you remove the tuna door bolster and aft bait tank bolster? Is it just the "Z" bracket holding it on? I tried using a rubber mallet on the tuna door bolster and it didn't budge. Im kinda afraid of hitting it harder unless I know that's all that's holding it. There is absolutely no access for it to have a bolt holding it. I haven't even tried removing the bait tank bolster yet but there is no access to that either. The port and starboard bolsters do have a couple of bolts. Anyways any suggestions or pictures would help. thanks
Rick
