BREAKAWAY SEATBOX BACKREST & HARNESS CONVERSION
Price: £ 40.00

There are still plenty of anglers, both coarse and sea anglers, who prefer a seatbox to a fold-up chair, especially those anglers who fish the commercials where you’re on the go all the time and have no time to relax.

Trouble is, before you know where you are you’re suffering with backache. It’s crept up on you while you’ve been hauling and oblivious to anything else. Suddenly you find you can’t move.

You don’t want to get a chair though, with a backrest that will allow you to sit back while you fish. You still prefer to bung all your kit in a big box, like you have done for years.

So what do you do? You get a Breakaway Seatbox Backrest, that’s what, the ideal answer to the backache problem and still be able to use a seatbox.

This is a conversion kit to fit a backrest and a carrying harness to a glass-fibre seatbox. It fits Nova, Beta, Riva, Shakespeare and other boxes of similar shape.

It won’t fit the continental type seatboxes with drawers.

Apart from it giving seatbox users a rest for their back whilst fishing it also provides a carrying harness so that you can carry your seatbox like a rucksack.

It comes in a flatpack and is very easy to fit.

FISHINGmagic VERDICT

A great idea. I can’t think of a good reason why every seatbox user shouldn’t have one.

If you’ve ever put together one of those flatpacks of furniture from MFI then you definitely won’t have a problem with this when it comes to fitting it! It’s well made and should last for years, at least as long as the seatbox.
