| Greetings, I am considering purchasing a P&H Cetus from a friend. The boat is in excellent condition but appears to have an older style seat, basically a hard plastic pan with back strap. I found a video showing information about a newer Connect Seat system. I’m wondering if it might be an option for me to upgrade the seat in this boat. Has anyone purchased a connect seat and retrofitted it into an older model boat? |

| Standup paddleboards can be heaven out on the water, but a little hellish back on terra firma. Chalk much of it up to transportation and storage issues. Rigid boards are solid performers but will likely have to be transported atop your car. And good luck storing something taller than a basketball hoop in the average closet. Inflatables are far easier to transport and store, but the inflation/deflation routine every time you want to ride can be a hassle. Innovo+’s Challenger joins a very short list of SUPs offering a third alternative. Made from rotomolded, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), it separates into three sections for easy transport and storage, then locks together to create a rigid board once it’s time to ride. |
