 DRIVERS SEAT
Im thinking about getting rid of the cooler sit and getting a different kind of seat and seat base for my 1854 gtb. What are yalls thoughts on the quad leg chair as a drivers seat?

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT
I have a spider chair in my small boat and it works well. I wouldn't replace the cooler for it though in your boat

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT
Cooler seat is nice but on long runs it wears me out. Just looking for something a little more confortable.

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT
Have the best of both worlds: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=419791) Tempress all-weather hi-back or low-back seat (available in camo) 2) Tempress Quick Disconnect base for (1) (Tempress Navistyle seats won't fit the QD base, only the All-WEather seats 3) Your roto-molded cooler of size, color, and choice. I'm using a 35qt tan Engel. When you aren't hunting, disconnect the seat (takes 5 seconds) and you have a perfectly-functioning cooler.

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT
Ok guys thanks!!!! Mounting it to the cooler is a great idea.
On the quad chairs I noticed there was one made by Wise and you can also get the cabelas name brand also. Which name brand is everybody running? Who makes the pyramid base also?

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT

 Re: DRIVERS SEAT
I have 2 of the ones from cabela's...decent little setup but I dont think the seats will last too long...we'll see if they make it through the season with the guys I take hunting...It looks to me that the seat back's will break when a big guy try's to lean back too much..but you never know
