Attwood Swivl-Eze 97749-7 Pedestal Kit, 11 Inch Post, 3/4 Inch Pin, 7 x 7 Inch Aluminum Base Plate
The Attwood Swivl-Eze 97749-7 is a complete boat seat pedestal kit built around an 11 inch non-threaded post, a spring-cushioned seat mount, and a matching base plate. It is designed to give installers everything needed to mount a boat seat except the seat itself and the mounting hardware, which are sold separately.
The base plate has a 7 inch by 7 inch square footprint that spreads deck loads evenly across a wide surface area, helping the mount stay stable and secure under normal boating use. The seat mount is finished with a black E-coating and includes an integrated shock-reducing cushion spring, which absorbs bumps and impacts from rough water so the ride at the seat is smoother. The pedestal post and base are made of marine-grade aluminum, chosen for its resistance to saltwater weathering, corrosion, and rust over repeated exposure.
This pedestal kit is ABYC Code B compliant, meaning it is built to the recognized safety standard for passenger boat seating hardware used on open water. The 3/4 inch pin fitting on the post is sized for compatible Swivl-Eze seat mounts and slide/swivel hardware. Because the kit ships as post, mount, and base plate only, it pairs with a separately purchased boat seat and mounting fasteners to complete the installation.
