Could be that an inflatable seat would lead to a severe case of "mushy tushy," the awkward feeling that your bottommost part is not firmly seated. I know I was not happy with a small Thermarest cushion as my seat in one of my boats. YMMV. I like my feet and upper thighs to be "locked in," and suspect that I would lose some control of the boat if I had a really soft cushion under my butt. I also think some of the forward force my body exerts on the boat is produced by the tush-hull contact, and with "mobility" down there, I might get chafing with an inflatable seat. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************
