It's a bit more difficult to replace the sliding front seat. I'm told on Wenonah's the web seat uses a different size slider system so it's not as easy as taking off the tractor seat and replacing it with the web/wood version. I feel like you could remove the plastic tractor seat from the existing metal tubes that slide along the brackets, the fashion some way to connect a standard web/wood seat to those, but I've not tried myself. My wife, who mostly paddles in the bow, assures me she's fine with tractor seat so it stays. Here's a few photos of the before and after: |

Looking for recommendations on the best canoe seat to use in a tractor seat. Currently looking at the crazy creek canoe seat but doesnt seem to have the best ratings. Thanks, Cole |

Northstar sells a version that is just the backing, no seat cushion, but I've no experience with it. Looks interesting though. Northstar Backband Brian Day (from Wenonah) has some useful thoughts here too about getting the most comfort from one of their seats: Wenonah Seat Thread Personally, I could never get comfortable in the Wenonah tractor seats. I swapped out the stern tractor seat on my Spirit II for web bench seat and enjoy it much better. |
