SX210 Captains & Passenger Seats Comfort

[Corrado891]

Hi Everybody! After a couple years of research, I brought home a 2012 SX210 last week in fantastic condition. With Memorial Day this past weekend, I really got to put her through her paces and I'm in love, except for one very nagging issue... Has anyone else noticed that the swivel seats in these things are absolutely horrendous in terms of comfort? I realize it is a sport boat, but it would be nice to lean back a little and enjoy motoring around the shoreline in the evenings. The seats force you in an upright position. Quite honestly, I would have reconsidered the purchase had I known how uncomfortable the seats were. The rest of the boat is wonderfully ergonomic with plenty of lounging opportunity, but the captain only has one seat to work with while underway. I have searched the forums for others talking about this, but have not found mention of it. If anyone knows of possible replacement seats or tips/options to create a little more comfort, I'd love to hear about it!

Other than that, this thing is awesome! Took about 2 days to really pin down how to maneuver the boat, but at this point, I prefer the jets to props any day. Even without vectors (have them, but have not installed), I can feather this boat into any area with absolute ease.

Thank you all for your comments on this forum! This has been a tremendous resource for pre-purchase research. Hopefully I can add to it as I get to know the boat better.

Same Here pick up am AR210 2012 with 27.5 hours on it and with 2 outing I'm standing up the whole time. Seat is just to low, it needs to be higher.
I wish the seat would go back farther. I have been looking on this site and there are a few people that raised their seat. That might help a lot for me.
Just need to get better information before I order something.
