This is broken and I don't know where to begin looking for a replacement part. Don't even know what to call it. http://s1368.photobucket.com/user/rob...=1&o=0 Edited by Phil T on 08/14/14 - 8:44 AM

The part is not listed since the seat is one complete unit. From a 1998 model sheet: http://www.bostonwhaler.com/boat_grap...3921PM.pdf If not available, I would modify the support to not use a plastic part. That is a really piss poor design. I would look at bimini top end caps for a start. They make this that might work in either a 7/8 or 1" diameter. http://www.easternmarine.com/bimini-1...-cap-6103c
