I have an Outback which I bought this summer and love it.....the only problem I have , which is minor, is my non-padded (skinny) butt gets sore after a few hours of fishing. I have what I guess is the standard seat which comes with the Outback.... Question: are there other seats (even by other manufacturers ) which are more comfortable and which will fit the Outback? I wouldnt think any other manufacturer makes seats which plug into those holes made for the Hobie seat.... maybe that fact is not too important. Thanks in advance...... Bill

You will definitely get used to it (I'm going through the same thing right now with a new bicycle I bought - the seat is new to me so it takes a few rides to build up the tolerance)

You should maybe have a look at our catalog to check out the inflatable seat cushion bottom that we sell. Page 28 - part # 72020028 (you can add it on top of the standard seat bottom, or use it alone - pretty neat accessory!. Here is a link to the catalog section online: http://www.hobiecat.com/kayaking/accessories.html

here is the direct link to the page with the seat bottom: http://www.hobiecat.com/support/pdfs/ka ... _28-29.pdf

Yes - it attaches as per the factory velcro strip built onto the seat. (the pegs can also be installed though this part - the holes are pre-installed/
