The ProBax seat uses a patented dual-core foam base and back for long-term back and upper-body support through chop and repeated casting. It is covered in 30 oz marine-grade vinyl over a polypropylene shell and locks when folded. A universal 5-1/4 inch bolt pattern accepts standard pedestals, and stainless hardware is included.

KayakDIY take: If your back gives out before the fish stop biting, the seat is usually the place to start. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
