I have a 5.5m Humber and am also considering adding additional seating, probably a bench seat to assist with storage too. Looks like this could be quite expensive though...

This might help to give you an idea. I keep a spare 20lt tank inside the bench seat, with plenty more room for other gear to be stored inside as well.
