I have a question about the Vantage Seat in the high-position. I am a big guy - around 250 lbs. The pegs that hold the seat up in the higher position are plastic (I assume) - are they rated for any particular weight? Anyone have an issue with these breaking or the hull cracking beneath them? Thanks...

That makes me feel much better as well. Soon as I can get out of town to pick mine up I'll have one in my fleet.

I'm sitting at 250 also, and have no problems at all with the vantage seat in any position.
