I don't know if this will help but I have two helm chairs with bases from my flying bridge. They swivel and slide. I'll take $100 each plus shipping

I replaced the original seats on my 28TE with Wise seats from West Marine. I just checked and they no longer have them in their catalog. I don't remember the price but it was much lower than other brands. The seat and arms are wider than the original so the mate's seat only swivels clockwise but that's enough. The captain's seat only had a problem because of where I have my radio. I solved that by reversing the right armrest. I would check all the nuts. I found some that were factory installed were not tight.

Nice pair of seats, Halcyon! Wish I'd waited longer before ordering the new pair we received a month ago.

Kevin:
FYI: I heard there's some new (used, but maybe nice) at Hurricane Jack's, Bridgeton. Haven't seen them. They were replaced by very, very, very expensive seats.
