Mad River Wooden Seat Truss 4 Inch- Pair

Mad River Wooden Seat Trusses are made of Ash and are used to connect the (Wooden) Seat to the gunwales on canoes with wooden canoe seats. This refined curved seat hanger is great for home built wooden canoes as well as a replacement for worn hangers. Made by Mad River it will fit other brands where the seat had the appropriate distance between the front and rear to fit the holes predrilled in the Truss.

Each Seat Truss is a one piece unit (sold as a pair) made of wood that suspends the from the gunwale seat lower in the canoe , providing increased stiffness, strength, and efficiency and stability. (It can be used in place of separate seat tubes adding stiffness and styles.)
