I was worried about being off balance because of how high the center of gravity is. But when I first got on I spent about a half hour in the harbor trying it out by rocking side to side and turning so that my legs were off the side and i really didn't notice a difference at all. When i caught the halibut with it pullling and trying to keep the yak facing the right way (one hand on the rod one paddling to turn around) I still felt very stable. A couple of times out there boats speed by and when their wake reached me the waves still felt like i was sitting in the old seat.

As far as the hard plastic seat goes it wasnt that bad. I felt it gave more support to my back. The only thing I might add is a butt pad but it isn't a huge deal without it.
