The Bumfortable seat is designed to provide support to the bony structure of the paddler’s body, thereby giving good postural support from the seat base.

Supporting the body from any higher may cause chaffing and muscular discomfort. The
majority of paddlers using a Bumfortable seat will find additional back support unnecessary.  However, there is provision for a 25mm webbing strap to pass through a moulded tunnel around the top /back of the seat.  Many people use this as security against the possibility of the seat becoming detached from the bottom due to the forces pressed against it during powerful paddling strokes.

Attach this to the hull in front of the seat via some loops of cord fibreglassed to the hull, or by bolting with a small machine screw and nut under the coaming.

Kit contains: webbing, buckles and stainless steel machine screws.
