Default K8 Seats

That seat pan looks identical to the seat in the Ka8 I just sold. I would have
classed it as Fiberglass.

I'm 6'2 so I needed every inch of space I could get. For the seat back I used
some black foam that Kayak owners use for cushioning their ships. I just cut
two pieces about 1' high(Guessing right now) by 2' long and wrapped them
behind me.

One mod I made to the seat cushion - put some straps on it and fasten them
behind the "back" support. That will keep it from sliding forward and acting
as a "nose down bungee" on the stick.
