I've got this same problem. Have the seats, don't have the hardware that bolts them down. Was planning to just go to ace to get bolts and washers, and was thinking about just using wing nuts for "tool-free" on and off. Only thing i was wondering...was the original installation "water tight?" Obviously it's not going to leak a ton of water but it certainly won't be water-tight with just a nut and bolt installation.
I'm not worried so much about water dripping down into the bilge - more in any moisture damage to the deck from the hole being constantly "wet."
