I'm not a fan of the Triton butt seat. Looking for one that's a little smaller to use when the water is rough. Bass pro has a few options but nothing great. Curious as to what others are using.

I made my own 11in diameter circle cut from king starboard. Had an upholstery place foam and cover them. They are awesome. 4in high density and 2in low density on top foam. Same stuff made for the touring seats on motorcycles. Being round, They are in the right position to sit at all times.

I have been thru the box store butt seats and they never last nor are they comfortable. The OEM butt seat from Ranger is closer to a bike seat.
I started ordering these Veda butt seats and believe them to be the most comfortable and durable. One on my previous boat still looks great after 6 years.

Bassboatseats.com new one is nice , good for leaning as well. The llebrock TZX series looks great as well and looks very similar to the Ranger. Im leaning (no pun intended) on that one for this year.i had veada make me a rear seat and the quality was amazing. Wanted another but there not making fishing seats they say till sping 2019.

I've been using this one: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Millenniu...-Seat/47499785 It went right on the post that My Ranger™ butt seat came on. I use the Millenium palma horse seat and SWMBO uses the full-on Ranger chair..
BassPro™ has the post w/the 4 nuts on sale and I'm going to go get the post and be able to use the Ranger butt seat for an option..
It works great to lean on too..

I don't but I'm guessing someone somewhere has. You know w/the butt seat if You were a little off You'd spin a little? No spinning with this one.

Any issues with longevity? On bass pro and cabelas more than a few poor rating for the plastic knob breaking and or the poor quality of the gas shock. Especially in light of the price. I was always interested as I like something small width wise.

It looks like it would take up more room than it actually does. You know how w/the circular butt seats when You lean against them and if You're not 'centered' it rolls one way or the other? That doesn't happen with this seat. I lean against it just as much as sitting on it. It doesn't get all hot either...

Thanks... I've seen those specs before... but they seem to always have the same specs on the regular chair style seat they sell as well. And also... it says "folds flatter..." and "seat height", so it makes me question if that was even the correct measurements listed for the butt seat.
I have the chair style ones already and love them. Was just thinking about this butt seat style for times I don't want a chair up front. But honestly..... I like a chair more and more each time I use it instead of standing all day.

This is what I was trying to address.. This Millenium b-300 doesn't spin like a 'normal' butt seat. I take a 90# Weimaraner and He will sometimes come up to the front deck and will lay out, so when You get to the seat it doesn't 'spin' so You can always get 'squared up' if that makes sense??
I removed the Ranger™ butt seat and the b-300 will attach to the common 4 screw head. BassPro™ has the pole for sale this next week so I'm going to buy a post for the Ranger™ seat to provide an option for any guests.
Also by using the pole it is collapsible so You can make it whichever height You want.
Not only is it more comfortable than the Ranger butt'er but it has been safer as I haven't 'spun out' like I did w/the Ranger butt seat.
I had a Triton before the Ranger and the Triton seemed to be 'wider' or more sturdy than the Ranger™
