    2007 Elite 200 Champion. Front Seat Base

    The welding on the pedestal tubes broke. I pulled back the carpet, and pulled out the base.

    Can you advise where I can get a new pedestal base exactly like the one pictured? Or if someone out there can repair this one or build me one? I don't want to change the hole locations in the deck or carpet.

    This is 10" long by 6 7/8" wide.

    Put the base in a vice. Drill a hole through the pedestal base. Apply penetrating lube let it soak. Find a small rod or use a long bolt or big tiewall nail. Twist back and forth & it should break free. Other option is apply heat to it.

    Thank you for that. But what I'm looking for is a new base.

    The welding of both of the tubes has broken and each one is very bent towards the rear of the boat. Therefore I am searching a brand new base with the two hole configuration. I can't find it anywhere? I want to replace it, as I already have the deck with 2 holes as well as the carpet which I will glue back down.

    Snickers89 & TX Champ. Incredible! I don't know how you found it, but it's exactly the same one. Great Lakes Skipper has a few remaining in stock. They carry hard to find parts. BINGO! There is no part#....but it's the same. So anyone else with a 2007 Elite 200 Champion with a need to replace! I ordered it overnight shipping, already arrived!!! Thank you!

    I've had good luck with Cascade depot. Look under floor bases and SKU #3640026-CL. This is a stainless base for a spring lock pedestal, assuming that's what you have.

    Jeff, I believe his pedestals are Snap-lock, not Spring lock...

    Do you have a link to Cascade? Might help others in finding parts.....
