    618 Steering Wheel ?

    Does the steering wheel adjust on the 618? I'm a good size and was wondering if it tilted or moved in and out to accomodate the plus sized people? How about the drivers seat...is it adjustable?? Thanks..............

    Does tilt but not telescopic and seats are not adjustable. Is there even such a thing as adjustable seat on bass boat?

    Yes there is such a thing. Well at least mine do on my 719. You remove the seat pad an there are the screws. The seats are sloted. Mine are almost all the way back. Within a inch anyway. They will move forward but you would be so close to the sterring wheel. I am 5ft 8in an I wouldn't want them any closer.

    My old Astro had an adjustable drivers seat that was on a track, like a car....but it was totally worthless. Unless you were 3 feet tall, it was a must that it stayed all of the way back. I'm 6'5" and routinely suffered from a bruised right knee because of it banging into the console during rough water rides.

    You could be 7' tall and probably be comfortable driving a 618.

    The old Pro Vee 200 Bumblebees had an adjustable drivers seat. It was mounted on slides like a car seat. Huge amount of leg room.

    Huh? Learn something new everyday. Any boat that I've ever seen the seats are all the way back but I didn't think about it moving forward.

    The Procraft I have now had an adjustable driver's seat.....it was on a track like a car seat.....I had the seats covered last year and did away with the track, it was rusted and did not slide.....I never moved it anyway, been in the same place for 17 years.....

    The thing I like about mine is I can adjust the hotfoot and sterring wheel so my foot can still step on the throttle and my stomach won"t be in the way.
