Default narrow bolster / flip up seat?

Hello all! Does anyone know of a narrow bolster / flip up helm seat? I've
found a bunch of 24' ones but my stock seat is 19" wide and there's almost
no room for expansion. (2004 hydra sports 212wa) I'me set on a
bucket/leaner type combo since I like to do both while underway. Any
suggestions? I haven't had any luck searching online for a narrow version.
Even the "narrow line" tracy chair is too wide.

Thanks a million,
Barb

The last Cabela's catalog I got had a LOT of boat seats shown. Check out
www.cabelas.com. If you don't see it there, call them. I've seen things in
their print catalog that were not online.

I had the same problem when looking for a replacement helm seat for my 20
footer. I originally wanted a flip up bolster but could not find any narrow
enough for the space I had.

I settled on this seat from Boaters World in white/red:
http://www.boatersworld.com/product/168060093msk.htm

I mounted it on an adjustable pedestal w/swivel, with a seat slide attached
to the pedestal top:

The seat is now adjustable in height, can slide forward and backwards
allowing me to sit or stand while driving and can swivel 180 degrees.

How did you find the quality of that seat? I have been looking at
those. I have the original bucket seats in my boat but the rest of my
vinyl has been redone. I'm trying to decide between re-upholstering
the original seats and buying new ones. I have a red/white interior
too.

The vinyl is moderate quality. Otherwise it is fairly well constructed.
