Hi,
I lost my helmspreson seat into the ocean accidentally several weeks ago. A new one is on its way from Bavaria.
This one should have the latch that the previous one was missing. Still, are there other things you do to secure your helmsperson's seat?
The two things I am thinking of:
1. Drill a hole in the flange and run some Dynema through the hole and onto a stern cleat, tied fast.
2. Gluing a block of styrofoam to the underside of the seat so that if it DOES go into the water, it won't sink like the last one did.
Thoughts? Thanks!
