: What about sticking in vertical foam braces like some of the more modern

: Just an idea. I've had some boats with really comfy glass seats and have one

You can put walls in if you block them in carefully. Otherwise it is just more debris pinning you in if and when it does collapse.

Stick a Redfish seat in your ill fitting kayak and you will never regret it. Your legs will thank you.
