: Hi All,
: I took a lead from Kurt Maurer and removed the back rest from my
: Redfish seat in order to get a good layback. This has been a
: good move. I can now lean all the way back. Sliding in feet
: first from a sitting position on the rear deck is much better as
: well. My roll is getting better leaned farther back. Kurt
: thanks, I like it.
: Clayton Plunkett

Got to try that on my old Guillemot... The backband drives me nuts. It always slips down and my back digs into the coaming lip. Too simple not to try...

=D
