have 21" ski boat looking at feedback on whether anyone has used suspension seats with floor located seats
I understand my ski boat is some what half the length of some of the bigger off shore boats, so there are a lot more options when you have some height in the seat to play with
Looking to have the seat base 4-5" off the floor to line up with Char Lynn hydraulic steering
the boat is 76" (1930mm) wide where seating will be located
presently have pair of 20" moulded bucket seats
There is not much room for back seats, so maybe option to run 3 seats across the front
However done some digging and came up with some options including a traitor seat which looked promising
Not looking to throw a $1000 at each seat for the suspension just after some advise if someone has looked at these sit down seats before and what others are using
