I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Skwoosh Kayak Seat - High Back for Kayak

Skwoosh Kayak Seat - High Back for Kayak

Description

The Skwoosh High Back kayak seat combines our fluidized gel cushion with a 20" high, fully battened, contoured back for all-day comfort and support. Engineered to provide comfort and convenience, the High Back kayak seat is perfect for the cost conscious kayak fisherman and long duration paddlers. SKWOOSH kayak seat backs are made in the USA and guaranteed for performance and workmanship.

A new seat is designed in conjunction with the HIGH BACK kayak seat, which contains our fluidized gel cushion with a 20" high, fully battened, contoured back for all-day comfort and support. Engineered to provide the ultimate in comfort and convenience, the High Back is perfect for the kayak fisherman and the long-duration paddler. SKWOOSHTM kayak seat backs are handmade in the USA.

This SKWOOSHTM seat back is made of durable 600 denier polyester fabric for long-lasting performance. Generally speaking, it is a durable and waterproof product that can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth or sponge. The best way to remove stubborn stains or grime is to dampen the area with diluted laundry or dishwashing detergent, rub the spot gently, rinse the area with medium-temperature water, and let it air-dry. With a soft sponge and detergent, you can wipe clean the nylon seat bottom with a soft sponge and detergent, or you can hose it down. SKWOOSHTM seats should be smoothed before each use to achieve the best results.

I have a field & stream 12ft sit-on fishing kayak and it works great. Very comfortable and easily adjustable.

Not seeing how this would work on sit IN types, unless they have some special attachment points added.

It should fit your 2013 Hobie Outback, but we ALWAYS recommend you measure and compare the dimensions before ordering, to save yourself the cost and bother of returning a product. The dimensions of the SKWOOSH High Back Kayak Seat (HBN1204) are: Back Height: 20 inches, 13 inches long, 16 inches wide and 1 inch high in the seat portion.

Your kayak manufacturer or reseller can confirm if your specific sit-in kayak seat is replaceable, but in general, most are replaceable. Yes, there are insert plugs in most all kayaks that will allow the placement (or replacement) of a seat, however, we urge you to double-check with the reseller or the manufacturer to be sure. Please see our answer to your other question as well for the full picture, since you have selected a non-lumbar support seat and may do better with a lumbar-supported seat.
