Two questions: - what holds the seat in its upright position? I see no latches or anything from keeping it from slipping back down. Am I missing something? - which side/end of the seat/platform goes astern to act like a backrest? I'm guessing the short side/end since the long one has a upright edge that I'm assuming holds cushions from sliding off. TIA for input and/photos Wayne

The back of the seat is the forward console. See if this personal page helps. http://www.whalercentral.com/infusion...r_id=11506 The drawings for the platform are in our Downloads section for those that want to build their own forward platform.
