Oceansouth Boat Seats
Upgrade your seating position with Oceansouth boat seats designed for fishing boats, runabouts, dinghies, centre consoles and general recreational boating. This collection includes compact shell-style seating, folding boat seats, high back boat seats and more supportive skipper-style seats, giving boat owners a practical choice for replacing worn seating or setting up a new helm, cockpit or fishing position.
For a simple, lightweight seating option, the C-Seat offers a heavy-duty plastic shell with moulded foam padding on upholstered versions, removable fabric for cleaning and compatibility with standard 7” swivels, Oceansouth pedestals and Oceansouth Titan removable swivels. It is a practical option where a compact seat is needed without taking up unnecessary space.
The Fisherman Boat Seat is suited to fishing layouts where comfort, durability and easy handling matter. It uses marine-grade polymer construction, a heavy-duty moulded plastic inner frame, thick moulded foam seat and back cushions, and UV-resistant OMNOVA fabric. Available colours include Blue / White, Camouflage, Grey / Charcoal and Grey / White, making it easy to match common boat interiors.
Folding Boat Seats for Space-Saving Comfort
Folding boat seats are a smart choice for boats where cockpit space is limited. They can be folded down when not in use, helping keep the deck area tidier while still providing proper seating when underway, fishing or relaxing at anchor.
The Deluxe Folding Boat Seat is a versatile everyday marine seat with durable marine-grade OMNOVA fabric, thick moulded foam padding, a heavy-duty plastic inner frame and anodised aluminium hinges. Its folding design makes it suitable for runabouts, tinnies and fishing boats where simple function and comfort are both important.
For additional back support, the High Back Deluxe Folding Boat Seat provides a higher backrest, thick moulded foam padding and a folding frame. It is compatible with standard 7” swivels, Oceansouth pedestals and Oceansouth Titan removable swivels, making it a practical upgrade for helm or passenger seating.
The Sirocco Folding Seat offers an ergonomic high back design, contoured dense foam core and generous seating space. It is well suited to boaters wanting a comfortable folding seat with extra support for longer time on the water.
Skipper Boat Seats for a Premium Finish
Oceansouth Skipper seats are designed for boat owners who want a more refined look with practical marine features. The Skipper Boat Seat combines a high-impact, UV-treated polymer shell with premium UV-resistant marine-grade upholstery, dense laser-cut foam cushions and a rear storage pocket. Its removable upholstery allows easier cleaning or colour changes, while the mounting design suits standard 7” swivels, Oceansouth pedestals and Oceansouth Titan removable swivels.
The Skipper Deluxe Folding Boat Seat steps up the finish with NAUTI-LUX fabric by Atlas, thick moulded foam padding, a heavy-duty marine-grade nylon frame and removable seat cushion and backrest cover. It folds down for space-saving storage and is available in multiple colour combinations.
For maximum back support in the Skipper range, the Skipper Deluxe High Back Folding Boat Seat features a high back design, premium marine-grade NAUTI-LUX fabric by Atlas, generous moulded foam padding and a heavy-duty marine-grade nylon frame. It is a strong choice for boaters who want a supportive, premium-looking folding seat for extended use.
Choosing the Right Boat Seat
When selecting a boat seat, consider how the seat will be used, where it will be mounted and how much support is needed. A compact shell-style seat may be ideal for small boats or secondary seating positions, while a high back or Skipper-style seat is better suited to longer sessions at the helm or fishing position.
- Choose a folding seat where deck space is limited or the seat needs to be stowed down when not in use.
- Choose a high back seat when extra support is important for longer trips.
- Choose a Skipper seat when you want a more premium upholstered finish and added comfort features.
- Check colour options carefully to match your boat interior.
- Confirm your mounting setup, especially if pairing the seat with a swivel or pedestal.
Complete Your Seating Setup
For a complete installation, pair your boat seat with suitable mounting hardware from the wider Oceansouth seating range. Browse boat seat pedestals for fixed, adjustable and removable pedestal options, or view boat seat swivels if you need rotation at the seating position. For additional protection when the boat is stored, the Oceansouth Boat Seat Cover helps protect fitted seats from everyday exposure.
For storage-focused seating layouts, boat seat boxes can help create a practical base for seating while adding usable storage space on board. If you are also refreshing other areas of the boat, related categories such as boat cushions and marine furniture can help create a more comfortable setup across the deck, cockpit or cabin area.
Care and Maintenance
Regular cleaning helps keep marine seating looking better for longer. Rinse away salt, dirt and sand after use, wipe upholstery with a mild cleaning solution and allow the seat to dry before covering or storing. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive brushes and prolonged damp storage, as these can shorten the life of upholstery and stitching. Where removable upholstery is supplied, remove and clean it carefully according to the product design before refitting.
It is also worth checking hinges, swivels, pedestal mounts and fasteners periodically. A secure seat is important for safety and comfort, especially in choppy conditions or when the boat is used frequently. If a seat is exposed outdoors for long periods, covering it when not in use can reduce weathering and help preserve the appearance of the upholstery.
