Seat base frame for inflatable boats review from Boatstogo com

- Hello everyone, and thank you for stopping by. The folks at Boatstogo.com were not only courteous to provide this seat frame for me to review but also footage of it in the water as you guys noticed at the beginning of the video. This seat frame sits right on top of the air deck floor of your inflatable boat. It is best to place the frame in place with the air deck floor semi-inflated, with the bladders of the boat inflated, and it slides right into place. Make sure to align the frame evenly before fully inflating the air deck floor. Once it is in place, it will not go anywhere, it stays in place and does not wobble. This is a good alternative to those of you who would prefer a cushioned seat instead of the aluminum seats that come with the boat. Thank you all for watching and hope this video helps you during the installation.
**Boatstogo suggestion**
The folks at Boatstogo suggested using the lowest setting of the Swivl-Eze to keep the center of gravity closer to the boat. That way if a big swell hits you or you happen to take a sharp turn going fast, the boat won't spit you out.

I’ve seen these and was considering one for the KAboat. Thanks for the review and I can’t wait to see it in action!
Your reviews are always top notch my friend! Love your happy sounding laugh too Erick!
😁😁😁😁😁😁
You're the best bro I've been wanting to see a review of this, now I need to see it on the water.
My pleasure. Yeah, the guys at boatstogo let me use some footage of it in the water. It was at the beginning of the video.
@@ErickMartinSucreyeah would you be able to go on the water, you give your honest opinion on it I don't always trust people who are just trying to sell but I will say it does look safe.
@@1d022clb My fats ass of 230 pounds could not move it, so yeah lol
As always, thanks for the great content. I've wanted to add something like this to my inflatable. My I add, that there is a swivel plate that can go between the seat and the pipe that allows you to turn without remove the pin. It called a Swivel Base Mount Plate. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I think I have that, but I have no idea where I put the bolts for it lol
Sweet 👍
😁😁
That's really cool. Wish I saw this before I got rid of my inflatable haha.
It's all good.
I was considering this for my seat but I put my seat on a milk crate instead. I think I might buy one to make my seat more stable. Thanks for the video.
My pleasure, and thank you for watching.
👍❤️🌹 Eric wow wow wow!!! Great
Thank you kindly!
Hi Eric . I finally got this seating frame for my SD365. I found that the width is not enough for stability . Is this female for Knoats only ? On my boat it’s not fitting on air deck and loose on sides. Any thoughts pls
this is the best one
Thank you very much
Interesting to see how practical it is out on the water.
The folks at boatstogo suggested to keep the Swivl-eze on the lowest setting, in order to keep the center of gravity as low as possible in the boat. You can get spitted out of the boat taking a large swelll or sharp turn if the level is too high on the seat.
So I have a question for you because I see you deal with Saturn a lot I bought one 16 ft heavy duty one so are they made strong I got mine put it together and it doesn’t feel that strong made the bottom yes the tubes don’t feel thick as I found a little scrape on mine took a pic when I set it up looks like I little slit in the top not sure if it happened when fedex bang it around but does hold air looks pretty cool amd I see how you do all the videos that is why I wjamt woth Saturn doesn’t look like it leaks from them little scrape would it be ok like that because to get a hold of them and try to ship it back all that would be a headache tho its doesn’t look like it’s new tho I see like stapes marks around it when I check it out on the transom to not sure if they test it first when they make them or what can you let ‘‘em know thanks appreciate it looks cool tho not gonna lie I’m a little worried Any information would help it’s the 16 ft SD488 I got woth alum floor to I know you blow the keel up amd the tubes on the side front amd it has a pressure leave valve to tho how does the boat hold the alum floor without her floor ripping the bottom of the boat ya I know it’s a lot I text but just wondering thanks

@donaldmartin4620 For the aluminum floors, the stabilizing beams are what keeps the edges away from the surface.
@@ErickMartinSucre ok that I figured but to be honest for what I paid over 2000 dollars thought the top of the tubes would be more how do you say thick they don’t feel thick maybe they are no dire I heard they have 3 layers I paid for the heavy duty ones bit so
T see the extra layer like they show tho so will see when I take it out in the ocean that is why I bought it at that price amd thanks for the tip on the aluminum floor wianted to make sure bit it doesn’t look brand new tho I look all around wondering if they sent me a used one that someone returned not sire thanks tho
This guy would be a great fishing buddy lol
Haha, you're gonna make fun of me for this, but I don't really fish 😅
Good video, Erick! Just wanna ask though- at the start of the video there’s a good shot of you in the boat with what looks like a long dog-leg tiller extension. It looks really handy! Are these available to buy or did you make it yourself? (If so- how?? 😁). Greetings from the UK- keep up the awesome work 🙂👍
Yes they do sell them. Outboard tiller extension. You can find them on Amazon or eBay. amzn.to/3GoALCp
do you think this would extend to fit boats that are wider like the 6.5ft wide dingys?
I have it here with me and it probably covers about 4 feet wide at most
If you had an aluminum floor, do you think the seat post base could be bolted directly to the floor panel with the need for the tube frame structure?
Yes, it can be done. You'll need round ended bolts so it won't scratch the pvc.
def want to see an on the water review preferably on choppy water to see it durability
I'm likely to do it on an island camping video with the ZK380.
@@ErickMartinSucre look forward to it
Is it possible to fit two seats in a side by side configuration?
This one only has one spot for the swivel base.
Nice nice ice....is that seat fit sk385xl ..?? ...👍
Yes, but the tubes must be cut down to fit
Eric, have you ever reviewed one of saturn budget boats?
The older models, yes, but not the new ones. They are made for lake and rivers mostly, but will tackle 1 foot wake in the ocean. They are not made for longer trips.
Thanks so much for the info. I am looking for a boat I can take in the ocean. Thanks again
What model Saturn boat is used on this video?
That's my ZK380
can you link this on their site? I can't find it anywhere
Just looked everywhere and it seems to be out of stock.
I saw someone made a similar frame from pvc
Yeah, they can be makeshift for sure, cheaper too.
Hi Erick! Any idea of when are the frames going to be available or where to get them other than boatstogo? Thank yo so much
I do not, but I will ask them.
Ok, they just answered back and stated that they just sold out, and it may take 2-3 months to get more. You can place yourself on the waiting list. alnk.to/60ZkHa1
Thank you Erick! Love your videos!
@franciscoroco Thank you 😊
Sorry to bug you haha, sdo you know if the alumni I’m floor for the SD365 will work on the CB365(budget) that’s the one I have and I would like a hard floor so I can put a nice chair , thanks in advance!
Why is not available at boat to go?
They sell rather quick
You don’t like fishing or they are not good boats for fishing?
They are great for fishing, lots if my viewers do it. I never got into fishing but love the outdoor adventures. I think it stems from my dislike of Seafood; I'm not a fan of seafood.
Does anyone worry about tearing the bottom of the boat
The tunes are insular without any edges.
Pity this is not available in UK
That's bullocks!
