The back to back lounge seats on my Campion are not holding up anymore and every time I’m on a small chop, the seats open themselves up and get flattened out to the bed mode. This is especially annoying to the passenger on the port side and coukd also be a safety risk when small children are on the lounge seat.
I looked online and the only replacement is the Wise seats but the reviews aren’t too good. I also thought about converting to single bucket seats. Got a price quote from Campion on the bucket seats that they use in the newer model plus the pedestal, slider and the seat cover and I almost fell off of my chair! The seats look super nice but they would almost cost me a grand/piece after tax and shipping. I have no plans to sell the boat in near future but it would definitely be nice if the interior looks all nice and clean.
Cheapest option is to repair the existing seats. Would it be possible to use a L bracket and fasten the seats just so they permanently stay in the upright position?
The other option is to convert to a cheaper bucket seat. Any idea what would be a reasonable option for this conversion? There’s a fish box under the lounge seat so I guess should be able to remove the seat and the stand and then bolt the pedestal base through the top of the fish box.
Would be nice to get the perspective of those who have done this project before.
