I got to thinking it was in the yak loose and if I turtled it would fall out. I took a strap and put a clip on it so I could atach it to the boat.I took the seat out

Dang thing started coming apart had a stick dropping down of off the bottom

Hey good job Ron. I actually thought the same thing about my seat. Not quite as fancy as yours though. I got the idea from Mick but, I made mine with a little more height.

It is still a lot lower than yours but, sits just fine, a lot better than the ground. A few months ago I went on a camping trip and used the kayak. One of the things I noticed was there was no place to sit except on the ground. This seat would have been nice to have then. That occurred to me after I made it and said "dang, I can take this out of the boat and use it at the camp site". Great job!!
Tight Lines, Steve
