These are the seats I've got


They're $300 a pair, complete with brackets and adjustments. I had PPI make Mitigator cushions for a friend of mine with the same seats and his old back problems went right away.

That's cheap enough. Where did you get them? And how much were the Mitigator cushions?

Bought them here in Sweden, but I guess you can find them in US as well.

One layer of Mitigator were about maybe $100 per seat, only the material non upholstered.

I have used the cheep ones as well but the difference is ours are built for boat use and with the structural foam core in the base. We can bolt them sideways on a pole and bounce on the back without breaking . The cheep ones are thin and the sliders bolt to the sides and the bottom and the sliders will rust in no time at all .
Tomas I would love to build you a set for your boat .
Is that carbon fiber on those seat basses you made or just black glass ?

My first time with the Pantera in rough seas. Just testing trimming the tabs and drive and with some more practice 10-15more mph isn't impossible in seas like this.
