Default Back to back seat pictures wanted.

I am going to be putting new seats in my v20 in the next few weeks, I would like to put a back to back unit on the passenger side.

I'm thinking of something like this but i'd like to see some pictures before i spend the $200.

the only thing I dont like about the Wise seats and most other back to backs is the 10" height of the base. My wife hated sitting in it as she could not see out well. Look for one with a 16" base or modify the wise one by making it higher

i have the back to back seating in my 86 v-20. Great seats and it converts to a small clong couch that my son loves to sit on....

I installed a new Wise back to back seat this time last year. With two little kids, it was a must. They also like the "lounging" aspect of it. Here are a few pics. Also, you have a bit more storage under the seats as well. The pics are blue because the tarp is still on the boat.

Thanks Carl, any chance you could post a picture featuring both the back to back in relation to the other seat? Do you feel like it is to low in comparison to the other seat?

I always thought it was too low. I took mine out and put in another captains chair. I do miss the back to back sometimes

I was just looking at mine today. I have an old back to back from a speed boat and mine sits very low, I have two captains chairs up front and a cooler seat. I over did it with coolers on this trip but it gives you an idea of the setup.

Soul, here is a pic of a seat I picked up during the winter...it has a 16" base. As soon as I throw it into the boat I'll take a pick and show you the difference....
