In Response To: S&G: New seat for my Coho *LINK* (Mark Normand)

I have one of Joe Greenley's seats in my Coho, and it's the most comfortable of any I have had in 20 or so years of paddling. I was going to carve my own, but after seeing Joe's wonderful machine for turning them out I had to try his. Most seats seem to argue with my butt after an hour or so and I expected to have to do some work to get his to fit for me, but it has been great as delivered. I did of course contour the bottom of the seat blank to fit the shape of the Coho hull, but other than that have not changed anything. Highest recommendation.

It looks like you did a great job on your Coho. I'm more than pleased with mine (and no, I'm not a shill for either Redfish or Pygmy, and am in fact mostly a pretty grumpy old phart).
