Really cool idea but at $1500 to do two seats I will have to hold off. If they were $200-$300 each I really might have thought about it.

Cool find.
I cannot vouch for my new pedestal, yet, as I have not had a chance to pound any serious waves since I installed it. But, this pedestal - link to the post below - does have quite a bit of travel when in the extended position which may or may not be ideal.
If it works it would be a super inexpensive equivalent!
