Re: boat seats+ swivel base, yes no, why ?

What swivel bases work well? Anyone know of where to get hydrostream seats from the company that went under a few years ago?

Re: V-king 175 Merc

Thanks to you all for the advice from this thread! I'm getting the feel of the boat and working the steering and countering the chine walk. It's a thrill to be learning the skill needed to run the boat to top speed. I've been rewarded with high 60 mph runs with low drama ! It's finding the right lev...
