: After playing with backbands for a while, I was getting a bit dismayed. Then
: I bought a Bestie Bay Recluse. The seat is a simple affair of foam layers
: glued to the hull. The backrest is a curved foam block glued to the
: bulkhead. It looks ridiculously simple, but it's incredible comfortable. I
: recently yanked the 'glass seat out of my Silhouette and built up
: something similar, and it's great! It probably took me at least as long as
: carving one from 3" foam would have, but the thinner stuff
: (1/2") is easier to find and a lot cheaper to use, since you're not

: The real beauty of a minicell seat is that you can add or remove material
: until the shape is just right.
