Attwood 238522-4 Adjustable Power Pedestal, 19-1/2 to 23 Inch Height, 238 Series Boat Seat Base
The Attwood 238522-4 is an adjustable power pedestal built for the Attwood 238 Series seating system, giving boaters a quick way to raise or lower their helm or seating position on the water. The pedestal's height mechanism smoothly shifts from 19-1/2 inches to 23 inches, so the seat can be set for the driver's preferred sightline and reach. A 2-3/8 inch diameter post is engineered as a precision-fit match for the 238 Series base, which keeps the seat locked in place instead of wobbling underway.
Release is handled with a single smooth-operating button that unlocks the pedestal from its base, while a low-friction ramped locking latch guides the post back in for a secure, stable reseat even after repeated adjustments. The heavy-duty build resists bending under load, and the locking mechanism is designed to hold steady weight distribution through rough chop.
Construction is hard-anodized satin aluminum paired with stainless steel springs, a combination chosen to resist saltwater oxidation and pitting so the pedestal holds up to ongoing marine exposure. The pedestal is certified to meet ABYC Code AO, the safety standard for open-water seating hardware, making it suitable for use at the helm or driver position. It is designed as a replacement or upgrade component within the Attwood 238 Series pedestal system.
