If you guys can't tell from my recent posts, I've "finally" gained enough free time to really start detailing comfort items on my 228. She sits next to the house under a recently built carport with all the tools and motivation available to play with. So next up (after the speaker locations post) is the port side helm seat. The way it is positioned, it's very uncomfortable. The seat base is installed to the forward edge of the mounting space which from pictures I've seen is the correct place. But being there, the fold down foot rest doesn't really fit for comfort.
I've had a small cooler there for a foot rest and it works ok but crowds the area. So what have you guys come up with and/or has it even been an issue?? My 1st thought is to change the seat so it can slide back some while still leaving room for the cockpit seat aft of it. Currently is has a stationary swivel it's mounted too.
