Phoenix boats have plastic inserts that your pedestal poles fit into. The bottom of the insert has a lip with a hole in the middle that the hook on the bottom of the pedestal grabs to lock it in place so it does not come out while running. You then press the button on the side of the pedestal that retracts the hook to remove the pedestal. A good safety feature. The problem is the plastic insert is breaking on mine. I am on my 3rd one. The insert is glued in and is a pain to remove and you damage the carpet around the hole each time. The part of the insert that breaks is the bottom part that the pedestal sits on. The insert has a lip with a hole in the middle that the hook on the bottom of the pedestal hooks into. The entire lip keeps breaking off after about 6-8 trips. The rest of the insert stays in place. anyone else having this issue?? Phoenix just keeps sending me knew inserts but it is getting old. I am concerned about running with the seat just sitting in the hole and not locked in.
