i went to look at one of the 16 215 ho in Orange the other night and I found it odd that the Capetians and passenger seats didn't swivel inward towards the boats center?? I have a 210 sp seafood and both seats turn toward the center . I wanted to get into a scarab but this seems like a huge oversight ... Any thoughts ?

My 2015 hoi 215 swivels to inside. Are you sure you were doing the levers right? My wife had to show me how to do it.

My 2014 195 HOI turn toward the center. There are 2 levers one makes it go front to back and the other lets you spin the chair around.

I was with my wife and she's of course much brighter than me lol. She's the one that discovered it . Maybe we wr missing something?? They seemed to turn to the outside of the boat but not the inside?

It might be like my LS where you have to have the seat moved all the way forward before you can rotate it to the center or 180 degrees.

@Ronnie0471 , definitely give it another shot. From another 215HO owner, mine will spin a full 360*, as long as you're pulling the right lever :)

Do you have an Orange 210 SP now? Just curious to find another SP "pumpkin" owner and hear why you're moving to a '16?

Yeah currently I have 2012 210 sp sold and is being picked up this Friday . I'm moving to orange 2016 impulse 215 ho this week. I just don't keep toys like these for more than 2 to 4 years. they depreciate too quickly . I look at like a leasing program lol
