Sun pad back tilt mechanism

charlieanna1983

I have a 2007 Rinker 350 EC. It has a great area for a snap in sun pad, but I would like to be able to sit up to look out over the bow of the boat. I need an adjustable back support, however, the current sunpad only lays flat. Does anyone know where i can find something like this? If I cant buy it can it be made? if so, does someone have plans?
Thanks.

Thank you very much. This is exactly what I was looking for. What tools did you used to fabricate this?

The one I made is just 1/2” starboard cut with a table saw and jig saw and routed with a 1/4” roundover bit. Standard woodworking tools are great for starboard.
