Springfield Regatta Fixed Pedestal 4-1/2 in Polished
Springfield Regatta Fixed Pedestal 4-1/2 in Polished — Product description
Need a low, rock-solid seat mount? The Springfield Regatta fixed height pedestal stands 4-1/2 inches tall in polished aluminum, built around the common 2-7/8 inch post. It's the short, no-nonsense mount for bass boats, jon boats, and any spot where you want to sit close to the deck. ABYC H-31 rated.
The Springfield Regatta fixed height pedestal is the short, heavy-duty seat mount for anyone who wants to sit low and stay planted. It stands 4-1/2 inches tall and runs on the industry-standard 2-7/8 inch post, so it drops into the seat bases and spider mounts most small boats already use. No adjustment, no play, just a fixed post that puts your seat right where you set it.
Why go short? Because on a lot of boats, lower is better. Think bass boats running rough water, jon boats where a tall pedestal would have you swaying, or a casting deck where you want your center of gravity down low for stability. At 4-1/2 inches, this post keeps you close to the deck and out of the wind. It's a favorite for fixed seating positions where you don't need the seat to spin up and down all day.
The whole post is aluminum with a polished finish, so it shrugs off salt spray and won't rust out the way a plated steel post can. Polished aluminum also just looks sharp against a fiberglass deck or an aluminum hull. Springfield has been building marine seating hardware for decades, and the Regatta line is their heavy-duty series, made to take a grown adult dropping into the seat without flexing or wallowing out.
Installation is straightforward. The 2-7/8 inch diameter is the common plug-in size, so this post seats into a matching base and locks the seat spider on top. If you're replacing an old, corroded post, measure your existing base first to confirm you're running the 2-7/8 inch standard and not the smaller 2-3/8 inch size. Get that right and it's a five-minute swap.
This pedestal carries ABYC Code H-31 B, so it meets the recognized marine standard for boat seating hardware. That matters if you care about doing the job to spec, and honestly, you should. A seat mount is one of those parts you don't think about until it lets go. Build it right the first time and you'll forget it's even there.
