From the looks on their website, I believe you could be able to attach a boat seat/bracket onto the rail system currently in place on the Recon.  Maybe someone who has one could chime in.

I was kinda thinking the same thing!  Was hoping maybe someone had done it and had some pics or good advice.

Think they have a place for a five gallon bucket molded into the sled. Just skill saw a round piece of wood to fit tight in the top of the bucket and mount your seat on the wood.....That way you have storage for beer or fish in your bucket.

I've got an extra seat for my Trekker 2 I'm getting rid of cause I got one of the new ones. If you rest of on the front of the sled it has a back part that folds out into the sled.

I use a Recon and I took the flat seat off and put a board across the top with a plastic type boat seat that folds over screwed to the board.  I like it because its a tad taller and has a back to it.
