HI Dan I have looked at this idea to get rid of the top cable from the sling seat in case some one steps on it! If you have the new aerofoil the rear spar sits higher in the boat and the tube can run underneath I have a friend who is doing that and I noticed it when I was looking at his plane! I wanted to get rid of that top cable and put a rod through to the back of the seat and have a bellcrank from there but I don't want to bore a whole through a spar so I won't! May be you could plate the area but I would want an engineers oppinion! Sorry I can't give you an answer! cheers
