LOL!
TMAC I hear ya!
How well do we think an aluminum, on aluminum post to bushing relationship would work? Dissimilar materials for the rotating elements.................... a simple design principle

As far as I know there is no such thing as a metal to metal air ride swivel pedistal...?
I was only trying to be helpful by explaining how these seats, which are already in use, ....work.

Option 1 is the standard Lund seats.
Option 2 is an actual optional extra, Airride seats (possibly WORSE than the standard seats in terms of comfort and strength?).
Option 3 should be a seat capable of rough water that uses the best materials possible.

Misuse is not the issue here, anyone who paid extra for airride seats knows how they operate. There's only two levers, "the turning and locking device". No matter how one uses these levers, the design should never allow a person to permanently FUBAR the seat like you described.

The biggest flaw in the Airride seating design for is your center of gravity is literally higher than the sides of the boat on a Pro Guide. This causes more force than necessary to be exerted on marginal seat hardware. Safety recall needed, period. Could cause passengers to be ejected if the driver is turning while the seat gives out.
