6. Determine the seat placement.

The seat placement determines the center of gravity of the boat. Where you attach the seat to the frame depends on your size and whether you will be using a motor and battery or carry cargo on the boat.

Use the following information about seat placement as guide to help you setup your boat for optimum balance in the water. After setup, load your boat with the gear you would use fishing, and try your boat in shallow water to determine if further seat position adjustment is necessary for optimum weight distribution.

If you are up to 5'6" in height, place the forward seat screws (underside of seat) into the front 1/3 of the seat frame bars.

If you are up to 6' in height, place the forward seat screws (underside of seat) into the middle section of the seat frame bars.

If you are over 6' in height, place the forward seat screws (underside of seat) into the rear 1/3 of the seat frame bars.

If you use a motor and battery or load the cargo basket with any heavy items, you will need to adjust the seat forward to offset the load and keep your boat balanced. The amount you will need to move the seat forward depends on the weight of the cargo and will necessitate that you try out the new position in shallow water before setting out.

Try making adjustments for cargo weight by moving seat forward in 1 increments.

Seat Frame

7. Attach the seat to the seat frame.

Locate the four 2" screws coming out of the bottom of the seat. Unscrew the wing nuts and remove the washers. Place the seat with screws facing downwards into the two bars on the seat frame and position the seat in the place that is best for your height and weight (see above). Once the seat placement has been determined, attach the washers and wing nuts onto the screws and tighten to hold the seat into place.
