    I'm trying to figure out how to build a bench/seating for on my fishing dock or if cheaper buy one. If you have built one, bought one, have pictures or any ideas, throw them out here. I'd like a couple rod holders and a drink holder. Any other extras ideas welcome. The decking is 3/4" marine plywood and the end of the dock is 8' x 8' with a 4' x 30' walk.

    Something simple like this or bigger? Add a few pole & cup holders?

    This is what is basically on my mom's roll in pier that is pretty much like yours Greenstick

    One that wraps around more like the first one is nice, but will limit boat docking ability, as well as fishing to an extent as well.
