This same seat was often included with 1990s era Ocean Kayak brand boats. Commonly found on Wilderness Systems kayaks kayaks circa year 2000. Same seat is found in early model Clear Blue Hawaii kayaks.
Important backrest info for older kayaks: The rear straps of this seat can be converted with plastic buckles to fit older Ocean Kayak models made in the 1990s and before 2005. It is a very simple procedure. All you need are some 1.5-inch side release buckles to replace the brass clips. Alternatively you can add strap eyes behind your seat and use the brass snaps that are common on all modern sit-on-top kayak seats. Kayaks made by Clear Blue Hawaii were outfitted with this seat.
