ABSTRACT:
A seat for use in an inflatable vessel having a vessel floor includes a support structure to place on the vessel floor for supporting a person in a seated position, and a member extending from the support structure for more widely distributing the weight of the structure and the person. The member is preferably an elongate member fitting through openings in the support structure. The support structure is preferably a box including a top surface, and front and rear wall portions joined by side wall portions. Two openings are preferably provided in the front wall portion and two corresponding openings in the rear wall portion and two members for distributing weight are provided and are fitted through the corresponding openings. The members are preferably PVC tubes. The seat preferably includes a back rest portion attached to and protruding generally upward from the support structure. The back rest portion preferably has a lower end and is hingedly connected to the support structure at the lower end so that the back rest portion can pivot down against the support structure during seat transport and storage. At least one tubular holder is preferably attached to the back rest portion and has an end protruding generally upward for receiving and holding a fishing rod handle. A cushion is preferably provided on the top wall of the box.
