The polished stainless post adjusts from 25-1\/2 to 32-1\/2 inches, the Spring-Lock mechanism holds your height, and the aluminum seat mount is included. Sit low, stand tall, lock it anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpringfield Marine built the Spring-Lock Power-Rise pedestal for anglers who want to work a rod standing up and then drop back down to a comfortable seated height when the bite slows. It's a stand-up pedestal with real range. The polished stainless post adjusts from 25-1\/2 inches all the way up to 32-1\/2 inches, so one pedestal covers both a relaxed sit and a full stand-up fishing position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heart of it is the Spring-Lock mechanism. You set your height, the lock holds it, and the power-rise assist takes the effort out of raising the seat. No wrestling a stiff post. We've rigged plenty of stand-up stations on center consoles and walkarounds, and the boaters who run them all day appreciate not having to muscle the seat up every time they stand to fight a fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe post is a hefty 1-3\/4 inch diameter stainless steel, polished smooth so it slides clean through a standard base. The seat mount up top is aluminum, and the pedestal ships with that mount included, so you're not hunting for a separate top plate. Pair it with a 13 inch swivel seat and you've got a balanced setup that won't wobble. Wider offset seats on a bigger walkaround can introduce some sway, so keep the seat centered over the post if you can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpringfield has been making marine seating hardware for a long time, and this pedestal shows it in the details. The polished finish isn't just for looks. A smooth, polished post slides without binding, where a rougher aftermarket post can grab and stick as it wears. If you ever do feel a little drag on a fresh install, a quick pass with fine emery to knock down any high spot on the base bore usually frees it right up. But out of the box, the Springfield post is finished to slide clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA word on the ABYC rating. This pedestal carries ABYC Code H-31 B, which is a Type B seat classification. Type B means it's a positive-locking seat that isn't intended for use at the helm or driver's position. Put it at a fishing station, a bow seat, or a cockpit spot where nobody is steering from it. That's the right place for it, and it's how the standard is written.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall is straightforward if you respect the deck. The base mounts through the deck with bolts, and on a cored deck you want to seal those bolt holes properly. Overdrill, fill with sealant, then redrill, and you keep water out of the core. Skip that step and you risk delamination down the road. We also like to drop a backing plate under the aluminum seat mount on boats that see heavy standing loads. The aluminum can fatigue at the bolt holes if a big angler leans on it hard in a chop, and a simple backing plate spreads that load out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn faster boats, give the base a solid footprint. A stand-up pedestal at full 32-1\/2 inch extension puts a lot of strain on the mount when you're pounding across a head sea, so a wider base pattern keeps everything planted. If you're running offshore at speed with someone standing, that's the setup you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance is easy but don't ignore it. Where the stainless post meets the aluminum mount, saltwater likes to sneak in and leave rust streaks over a season. A light coat of marine grease on that interface once a year keeps it clean and keeps the post sliding smooth. Two minutes of work saves you a stained post.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing to check before you buy is headroom. The minimum height here is 25-1\/2 inches, which is great for an open cockpit but can be tall for a low-profile cuddy cabin or a small bowrider where a hardtop sits low. Measure your clearance first. On the right boat, though, this is a solid, well-made stand-up pedestal that does exactly what it promises. Sit low, stand tall, and lock wherever you set it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable post height 25-1\/2 in to 32-1\/2 in, so one pedestal covers both a seated position and a full stand-up fishing height\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-Lock power-rise mechanism holds your set height and takes the effort out of raising the seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-3\/4 in polished stainless steel post slides smooth through a standard base and resists corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum seat mount included, so there's no separate top plate to source\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eABYC Code H-31 B (Type B) positive-locking seat classification for fishing and passenger stations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolished finish reduces post binding for a clean, no-stick height adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePairs with standard 13 in swivel seats for a balanced, wobble-free setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStand-up height supports rod work on your feet, then drops back to a comfortable seated height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Springfield Marine reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow far does this pedestal adjust?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe post adjusts from 25-1\/2 inches up to 32-1\/2 inches.
