Outback seat trouble - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Andy at OEX showed me that seat just last week. It looks very comfortable, at least more comfortable than the one that I've been using for the last 4 years. I'm saving up my nickels and dimes to get one.

Hobie sells an inflatable air cushion that matches up with your seat back. All you do is remove the gel pad and install the air pad. My legs never went numb after that.

It's not cheap for an air cushion, but it solved my problems and the mod was clean. Plus, it's a Hobie, you have to expect $$

Cheap alternative that actually works very well...

A 7 dollar gardening kneeling pad from Lowes. Many guys use it and it provides a lot of extra comfort.

Rectangular about 10 inches by 18 inches or so.

Just stick it under on on top of your seat.

No air bladders.

Maybe they will resurrect this deal.

Thanks for the info guys, I ordered a cushion that had good reviews. We will see how it goes I might post a review. If it doesn't work I'll eat the money and buy a better seat
