Yesterday in rough seas, the bolt that secures the pedastal base to the hatch for the helm seat pulled out; the receiving threads on the pedastal base were corroded aluminum and the pedastal and chair collapsed in the cockpit. The Chair and footrest are Todd, but the pedastal (which has a rotating function) cannot be found ... any hints, luck, parallel experineces, replacements?

Pedestal Base for helm Chair
Thank you for replies. I have found replacement with help of Todd representative .... needs new pedestal base to replace one where threads corroded. And, no one was hurt, except my pride of haveing to stand 1/2 way to Solomons island in 3-4 ft seas and winds 16-25 .... a challenge.
