I am a rookie when it comes to owning a boat......i just took out my whole interior and am having it recovered ....ive baught two seats of of ebay that are quite nice but dont match ,i am looking for the close matches now to complete the sets...........my question is that the seats i took out were laydown seats[back to back that could slide and laydown] i am now wondering if i should use these because of the lay down feature ,,,,how often out on the water do you use your laydown seats ....it seems that i can have alot more room if i make it so the captains seat can swivel 180 as well as the passenger and just have 1 rear passenger seat..............it is a 18 1/2 foot bow rider ,,,with seating for 2 up front

Re: lay down seats

I have lay down lounge seats in my four winns, hardly ever lay them down, they aren't very comfortable to lay on, we do on occassion recline them. (pull out one end)<br /><br />DougV>

bigbad,<br /><br />are you single? seems most of the time I've used the laydown feature there was a young lady aboard, if you know what I mean :D . (Unfortunately it hasn't been nearly as often as I might wish :( )

Re: lay down seats

I have little kids, three of them, and when cruising it is nice to lay the seat down, and prop them all up against each other so I can watch them rather than one up front, one in the very back (out of view), and one somewhere else. This probably came as a result of doing what LakeLivin is writing about ;) ;)

Re: lay down seats

IT all depends on you. You will lose the storage under the seats if you remove them. What are you going to use if you are not going to use the lounge seats?
