Tried it out today. 6hrs on the water. The Viking seat keeps it in situ so no need for fixing..............Best $70 I ever spent at Whitworths!

As kids dad used to put a fake leather bean bag in the canoe for us to sit on. Super comfy. This also looks good, I have been contemplating doing something similar.

Whilst my patio chair cushion is doing the job for me at the moment, I've been contemplating those micro bead neck supports/pillows. They look like they would be worth a shot as well.

How does it feel stability wise? Doesn't take much extra height added for things to feel a bit wobbly.

Put it on a swivel base to make it easier to reach things behind you.
Guaranteed to make you fall off.
Ask me I did.

Mate, it's a viking tempo fisherman. Although it definately has affected stabilty being higher up, the fact thatit's a tempo, i'd have to do something silly to create a roll. Being higher has definitaly aided casting ability and visibilty as well.

It comes with a base which I took off. Without the base it's a lot lower and sits without movement.
