Patent attributes
The present invention relates to an improved fishing seat designed to be used on a boat. The fishing seat is configured to be attached to an interior of a boat, and in one potential embodiment to a shelf/inwale of the boat. The fishing seat features a substantially rectangular backplate that is attached to the shelf and is designed to laterally move along the shelf, thereby enabling the fishing seat to lock into a desired position at any forward, amidships or aft position. A seating platform extending orthogonally from the backplate (and accessible from three sides), is used for sitting by a user for an activity such as fishing. The fishing seat can be generally folded flat when not in use to save space. A supporting plate hingedly connects a base of the backplate and a bottom surface of the seating platform.
