Hi All,
Tried this inquiry under the Mod's thread and got no responses. Let's try here. Thanks

While I love my 150 Sport, I find the comfort package's seat back cushions offer little in the way of true back support(too low). My wife and I have taken to using Crazy Creek Camping Chairs to get some comfort.Has anyone found a seat modification for this year and model. The helm bench seat depth leaves little room to add an off the shelf item and I'm not sure how one could be mounted in any case?
Thanks Again

Rather than modify the seat and possibly detract from the resale value, I'd remove and store it, and replace it with one made from marine plywood, painted white. Then you can through-bolt a pair of those luxury swivel fishing seats. Some even have armrests.
FWIW, the stock seat provides support where we need it... the lower back... and works fine for us.

What Moe said. I run mine in the Atlantic out of Manasquan Inlet through some decently snotty conditions at times, and the seats work for me. Although I'd druther stand at times...
