Passenger seat

[2015 SX210]

I’m closing the deal this week on a 2015 SX210. Can anyone tell me if the passenger captains seat is adjustable up and down? It was sitting significantly higher than the drivers seat when I looked at it a few weeks ago. Hopefully this is the case as if not, the passengers head will be a great deal higher than the window.

I'm pretty certain all models have fixed height bases. That is the case with my '16 AR240. The only adjustability is the the flip-up bolster on the captain's chair. It would be unusual for them to be different heights unless one was modified.

I just purchased a new adjustable base for my captains chair. I intend to make the swap as soon as it stops snowing. Here's the one I purchased:
Mainstay Power Rise Pedestal with Seat Mount Slide 13.8" to 19.5"

Here's a thread on the one I purchased:

If you for whatever reason decide to go ahead with ther purchase and need a factory seat base, I may have one available. I'm not sure if there's a height difference between a 210 and 240...?

Just looking as a replacement parts diagram and its odd the captain's and passenger chairs both have different part [HASH=82]#'s[/HASH]. I'm not sure the differences?

Not height adjustable stock but you can buy adjustable pedestals. All of the passenger chairs seem to sit higher on these boats, some more than others depending on year and model.

Thanks! This one, the passenger is much higher than the drivers seat. As in 5-6” I’d say. Crazy that stock height would have your head way up above the windshield?!

Pull the base apart and cut some height out of it and put it back together.

Pull the base apart and cut some height out of it and put it back together.

On my 2012 that will only gain about 1 inch and then the seat bottom will be setting on the fiberglass.

The raised height was the first thing I noticed when I got my boat and it bothered me too, but soon after you get used to it and it becomes a non-issue.
I did look into cutting it down but then realized it would make it more difficult to remove the seat cushion behind the passenger seat. Not worth the hassle.
