Another thing to think about......don't look for "the most comfortable seat".....what that means is a seat that is raised off the hull of the kayak....sure it feels great, but it also raises your center of gravity about 4 to 6 inches from the hull.

I had to use a Pro angler in Panama 3 years ago and for the first time in my kayak fishing life, got pulled over by a little 30 lb. yellow fin tuna ! (held onto the rod, got back in and landed it...and ate it ! ) But also have landed many big sharks, bigger tuna, halibut and many other much bigger fish without ever even getting close to going over.

I will take the old Hobie Revolution seats and tarpon seats where I am sitting close to the water .....every time !
