Broke a seat on my boat, one of the pedestal seats. I'm considering Millenium for the replacement. Seems like they are well thought of here, am I remembering that right?
And I'm guessing I take the pedestal mount off the bottom of my old factory seat and put it on the bottom of the Millenium. Do they match right up?
Yes sir.
I have one millennium seat on my boat currently and has slowly replaced them. They are such a good seat.

Thanks guys.
They are a bit cold while running at speed in the winter. Other than that they are great
My wife and I have used Millenium seats to fish out of for many years now and we would not use anything else. They are just as easy to mount as any other seat. Attachment 505735
Can a 6'5" obese man lean back in that without it breaking?
It is a personal preference. I like sitting on a nice cushy seat like the Tempress. Try sitting all day in a boat on one before going and replacing your all seats.:twocents
It has a weight limit of 400 pounds. My dad has sat in it and he’s over 300 and had no problems.Quote:

I sure can see they’d be cooler in Summertime. But have held off on trying them. I’m up and down constantly, and moving around close to the seats. That metal frame/square corners, my knees and legs have questions about.

They are great seats. But if you wear shorts in the summer you better carry plenty of band aids. I bought 4 of them to go on a fishing pontoon an took them off for this reason. Them square corners with plastic plugs on the front is ruff on bare skinQuote:

I will second a cushy seat, the Millenniums are okay but the angle is weird to me. They sit high on the front and just relying on straps to keep you from tipping back. Of course they can be modified with aftermarket metal brackets. I have three millenniums one B100 green won in a raffle and two B100 grey that came with a boat I bought. I wouldn't trade one of my original 1991 Stratos cushioned seats for all 3.
My neighbor added two to the front of his bass boat , certainly makes for a more comfortable trip for two anglers.

I have bought new cushioned seats and tried them. They hurt my back. I now have Millenium seats and have had for seven or eight years. I wouldn’t have anything else. I did use some stainless washer to adjust the tilt of the seats to my liking. I also did buy the aftermarket metal brackets from Rickie at Podunk Ideas. They are great. I would recommend taking a look at them if you get Millennium seats

I'm taking the somewhat cautious route. I'm buying one and if I like it, another later.
I have a place for a third seat so if I don't like it much, it will be the rarely used third seat.
Thanks for the input folks!
Here's my ratings out of 10- comfort in summer is an 8, comfort in rainy weather is a 9, and comfort overall is about a 6 or 7. :twocents
I mounted my seats backward to what it says and the angle is much better. It could also be adjusted with washers between the seat and base.Quote:

I had 2 of them in my last boat and thought they were ok in the hot sun and for me no issues with sharp corners
love mine, but see my post about China made bases .
