New boat Seat

[Jim]

My G3 has a regular sit down seat in the front, and I dont like it. Its not comfortable to sit and fish and work the trolling motor. Im tall and it is awkward. Plus its tight right in the front with a huge seat. So I started looking into those pro/lean seats. G3 wants $180 for there pro seat...Sorry! too much for me. The others get crappy reviews. So I decided to go with this one. Now I have to buy a pole, anyone recommend one over another?

I got one similar to that, but it's taller, still made by Wise, though.

As far as the pole, I got the one with the click things in it, as I never lower it, so I didn't see the need to pay for that useless (to me) feature!

Can you get me the name or a link? This part is confusing

This is the seat

Here is the pedestal.

Don't know what system you use, but I use the drop in style, like shown. I also picked that pedestal becuause it was taller than the pneumatic one, i'm about 6', so I didn't want the pedestal to end up around my legs, I wanted to lean!

If you don't have any of it, you're also going to need the base and the seat mount, but if you're upgradng, all that stuff should be there.

Sweet!

I'm 6ft too. Im going to order that pole and the seat mount.

Thanks for the info!

I've used both types of seats posted above and this seat at Cabela's is by far my favorite.

I looked at one of those as well, but decided against it cause we roll with trolling motors only, and I have no other seat
