Just wondering if anyone ever attempted to install hinges on the seats for a 195 or 215? Accessing under the seats are a pain especially when guests are on the boat and don't know how to properly realign the seats.ad_1502803791219.jpg

Hmmm...never thought on adding gas struts to my 255's seats....always thought of doing the Yamaha style hinges.

It's a great idea. The scarab system can be very cumbersome especially for guests. Maybe something for RBH to think of for the 2018 model year.

The picture I attached is from a four winns. I'm sure it can be modified to work. Seems pretty simple. The 255's I believe are hinged, wish they did that to the 195's and 215's...
