Easy Assembly and Customization
The aluminum frame is assembled using the included corner brackets, T-nuts, and bolts. The swivel mounting platform attaches to the two parallel aluminum supports, creating a solid base for a compatible fishing seat.
The completed assembly can be placed inside a suitable inflatable boat or kayak and removed when not needed. For greater stability, optional lashing straps can secure the frame to existing D-rings.
The 4040 extruded aluminum profiles also make this kit an excellent starting point for custom DIY projects. Additional accessories can be mounted directly to the aluminum T-slots using compatible hardware.
Important Information

- Assembly is required.
- Depending on the boat's interior dimensions and configuration, modifications may be necessary.
- Optional tie-down straps and additional fishing accessories are sold separately.
- Secure the frame and seat properly before use. Do not use an unsecured swivel seat as a support while standing or operating the boat at speed.
