Author	Topic:   Leaning Post for 17' Montauk
Jeff Kubu	posted 12-17-2003 03:52 PM ET (US)         I am thinking of replacing my seat with a leaning post. Has anyone found a particular one that fits well and works good?
vdbgroup	posted 12-20-2003 09:31 AM ET (US)             I purchased a LP from Birdsall Marine (www.birdsallmarine.com) for Montauk w/ Pate fiberglass tank. Price around $750. Outstanding Quality.

Erik 88Montauk	posted 05-22-2009 07:52 AM ET (US)             I replaced my RPS with a leaning post a few years ago and love it. I had a local place custom make it. It is the same width as the console and has plenty of room for my 20 gallon Meeller and lifejackets. These are the best picks I have readily available... http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r157/etimothy/04-29-07%20boat%20pics/ DSCF0043.jpg http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r157/etimothy/new%20motor/DSCF0008. jpg Erik

jwestwood	posted 04-10-2014 09:46 AM ET (US)             If you are looking for a flip back seat/leaning post, you might try Gander Mountain and search under item Springfield 1042050. This item can be mounted on existing posts which previously held chairs. Unlike most leaning posts, I can use existing post locations and won't need to move with more screw holes. Hope this helps.
