PA 14 seat upgrade - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

467echo · 08-06-2013, 08:30 AM

Put this new seat on a couple week ago. Putting this seat on was easy cheesy. Just had to buy longer stainless bolts. I also added about 5 washers on the front 2 to angle it up just a little. Didn't even have to adjust the Hobie pedals. The seat could have a little more padding for my fat a**. But still a real nice upgrade. I give it 2 thumbs up. I bought the Tempress low back model and it was ~$100.00. This guy seemed to like it too

I'd say it looks about 23 pounds heavier.....

Did the hitch hiker come with the seat?

She said it was comfy, except for some huge metal thing in her mouth.
