I would guess Striper 2301 or 2601 with the Alaska Pack.

Nice Seats too! What was on her before?

Hey guys, Boat Hog is correct, Its a Striper 2301 Alaska Pack. I love it! The old seats were the standard Striper ones.

Hi Scrotty

May I ask where you bought them from? Rough price?

Many thanks

Gday ML, I got them through CoastInternational (Australia) I had to wait for months untill they were back in stock. They were around $240 each. The US was a bit cheaper but nobody had the color i wanted, just plain white. Cheers

Thanks for that Scrotty!

Mate also has a Striper 2301 and needs new seats, has been looking round and these look great.

I take it that they have enough clearance to swivel round etc and were straightforward to fit to the existing Striper swivel / slide bases?

Many thanks ML

Hi Scrotty

Just a follow up and an big thank-you!

My mate bought a set of these seats and fitted them to his Seaswirl 2301. He got the charcoal grey versions.

We did the first trip offshore yesterday with them fitted, and man, are they great seats! Very comfortable, good back support, and nicely finished.

We were both very impressed, they seemed to help make the ride in the big Seaswirl even better! Very nice how they have the grab handles for #2 and 3 deckies moulded into the frame at the back, too. Overall, they worked perfectly and are a suitable, quality edition to an upmarket boat such as the Striper.

If i ever need to replace the seats in my Surtees, i will be getting these if they are available! At under $250 each, not that expensive for a seat of such high quality.

So thanks for your post about these new seats. Without you sharing the details we would never have found them. The are supposedly stocked by the likes of BIAS and BCF but i have never actually seen one in stock there or in their catalogue.

Cheers!

ML
