Abstract: A simple to construct and utilize apparatus mounts a trolling motor control pedal and a seat in a fishing boat to provide optimum user comfort and control. A substantially planar plate has a control pedal mounted on its top surface near a first end of the plate, and has a sleeve for receiving the pedestal or post of a seat (chair) near the second end of the plate. Extending downwardly from the bottom surface of an intermediate portion of the plate is a shaft mounting the plate to the boat deck for rotation about a substnatially vertical axis of rotation. Beneath the pedestal-receiving sleeve is a rubberized non-skid material adhesively secured to the bottom surface of the plate to engage the boat deck and retard movement of the plate when a fisherman's weight is on the chair.
