Hi,
I'm looking at some used 255s and I want to know what model year the full lay down seats on the back appeared. I like the idea of a sun deck on the back. I have talked to a 2019 owner who said his only adjusted to a different tilt position, they didn't lay flat. I've looked an unused 2022 and it has seats that fully folded down. Does anyone know what model year it was made available? Or was is a custom option on some boats and not others?

Thanks.

It's called the Versa Lounge. It was an option. I have it and wish I didn't. It's not really that big, 1 adult maybe can lay across it but then you're in the way of everyone else getting on/off the boat. When it's laid flat the step to get into the boat is very high. I'd trade someone my lounge seats for their non lounge if they had yellow/grey impulse interior.

Ah! Thanks for the clarification. Do you know what year it became an option?
