Both of the seats on my boat are very stiff and hard to swivel or move forward and backward. Is there any type of lubrication for this?

I bet the silicone spray they recomend for the engine would work well. II'd have to get under my seat and take a look though.

This may be obvious, but just in case: mine has a knob that tightens the chair and keeps it from swiveling.

Mine has same knob but it still doesn't work as "freely" as I would like it to. For what its worth, my old 230 was worse :confused:
