Boat Seats. Custom seating in a Maine built Downeast boat. The seats are made from white oak. Besides the clean, nautical lines, storage was incorporated in every aspect of each seat. Under the captain's seat there is a removable foot rest where extra cables, zip ties and such are stored. The air handler for the heat and air conditioning is located in the captain's seat also.
Each seat in the boat is numbered according to its position going from bow to stern. In an eight the seats would be 1 to 8 & cox. Two seats, however, are more commonly given a different name. The #1 seat, that closest to the bow, is called bow seat. The rowing seat closest to the stern is called stroke.
