Project "Laid Back": Since I've been spending some time in my recliner, I began thinking about the fun of recreation and boating. Many center consoles have nice lounge seating up front, but what if you wanted a floating lounge to lay back and relax at the sand bar or when we can raft-up again. And how could you store it? Hmmm.
