Nice job Adam, once you get that seat mounted inside the boat it will lower your center of gravity and make the boat much more stabil. Looks good.

It's a pretty good idea to do it like this. You can get a feel for where the ideal paddling postion is (lengthwise).

Yes, I intend to do the same thing. I am going to make my seat adjustable though because I may have changing load requirements. Only the back seat will be movable though.
