This Premium Pontoon Captain's Bucket Seat is a top-of-line seating option in Leader Accessories' boat seat catalog, priced at $229.99 against a $289.99 list. It's aimed at pontoon owners upgrading the captain's chair or a passenger spot.
The seat measures 19.5"H x 22"L x 21.5"D around a high-impact injection-molded plastic frame. Plush, high-density foam padding is wrapped in heavy-duty marine-grade vinyl that the brand describes as water resistant, and the contour is shaped ergonomically to fit the body. It mounts via a standard 5" x 5" or 5" x 12" bolt pattern — the wider pattern common on pontoon furniture — and four mounting screws and washers are included. The seat is rated for up to 250 lbs. If the stock photos aren't enough, the range spans ten piping and color combinations to match a boat's interior.
Ordering details: shipping covers the 48 continental United States only, so Alaska, Hawaii, PO Boxes, APO/FPO, and international addresses are excluded. At $229.99 the order ships free — anything below $70 pays a flat $10 — with 1-2 business days of processing and 2-6 business days of transit. The return window is 30 days for regular-priced goods, but because the seat is currently discounted, it's a sale item and not eligible for returns under the brand's policy.
