Abstract
A boat seat is pivotably hingedly attached along a line parallel to its front edge to a supporting member spaced below the boat seat with shock-absorbing resilient padding located in the spacing between the underside of the boat seat and the supporting member. Preferably the padding is slidably adjustable and also can be removed and replaced with padding of different durometers as necessary for differing conditions.
