h23 seatbacks
Rob, you're right, the seat backs in the h23 are about purely cosmetic unless you're 5' tall. like you, i considered how to move them out some but instead i just took them out altogether. (really opens-up the cabin). a trick i learned is if you take the 2 small inserts that cover the portapot and v berth area and use them as seat backs , you can set them either wedged back by the starbord coffen berth area or leaned against the galley and have 2 big recliners. guess this doesn't truly answer how to move the backrests out but for now this is the route i have taken. also, i got 2 of the "stadium/camp" type soft folding seats for when i really needed a backrest below, or more importantly, in the cockpit due to the low comings. the jury is still out here as i got them late last season and haven't used them much yet.just another option....william
