2016 Vantage CTi seat on a 2012 Oasis

I wasn't sure this was going to work but it did, it was easier than expected and I love it.  This is the Vantage CTi seat that came with my i11S.

normal 1/2" ID PVC is too large, I used the smaller 1/2" OD CPVC hot/cold pipe, very rigid and strong.  Oasis already had connection points at all 4 corners.  I spread the front weight over 3 contact points it is very solid.

seating height feels real good, probably similar to the high setting in the new boats that come with Vantage seats.  I will still use the very low original Oasis seat for ocean outings; everywhere else I will be using this Vantage seat.

I also gained a little leg room, original seat required me to use drive setting "6", the higher Vantage seat moves me slightly back, I now use drive setting "4".   I spent 3 hours on the water today getting a good workout and it felt great in a decent breeze and some chop on the water.  cheers, roger
