Our high back Manta Inflatable Kayak Seat is an accessory chair for inflatable kayaks, or Sit-On-Top kayaks as long as your boat has the proper connections. The backrest is 17.5" tall with rigid insert bars running the full height in back. The large wrap around sides have a V-strap that extends forward terminating in nylon snap-hooks, and the backrest features a pair of large loops where a small drybag can be secured. On some inflatable kayaks with a thwart backrest, these straps could also run all the way around the thwart as long as the diameter doesn't exceed 10". On an AIRE kayak you could use these straps to go though the cargo loops which would prevent forward movement of the seat.
Manta Inflatable Kayak Seat - Sit On Top Kayak Seat Easily Attaches
These will attach most easily to the previously mentioned cargo loops found on AIRE i& Tributary nflatable kayaks, but can work with any other brand either of two ways: If your i.k. is a model with bail holes that run along the edge of the inflatable floor chamber, use soft 1/4" rope to form loops (through pairs of bail holes) to attach the Boat People Manta seat's brass snap clips to. Or, if your ducky is not an AIRE nor has bail holes along the floor edge, then call us for the appropriate D-rings to add to your hull. We carry 4" D-ring patches in both pvc and hypalon, though we don't have every color on the shelf. Many of these small items are not listed on our website.
Inflatable Kayak Chair Perfect Adjustments
The Manta seat is probably not what you want for heavy whitewater, being more intended for touring type inflatables, but for many uses the Manta Seat will add a great deal of comfort - especially for taller paddlers.
This seat is made in the USA with American materials including tough, fast drying cordura, 800 pound 1" webbing, and closed cell ethafoam. Black only with logo.
