Tahe Performance Kayak Seat Design

Apologies for omitting the step models earlier; they've now been uploaded without altering the official, original submission. This design has been an enjoyable experience, thanks to Tahe Kayak for the opportunity! For detailed specifications, please refer to the Engineering Drawings PDF if you're interested in judging or examining the competition. The focus of this product is its manufacturing feasibility - despite witnessing remarkable designs, many would entail excessive production costs. My design incorporates a few CNC parts, tubing bends, and complex components that require molding. Notable features include an adjustable sliding seat and backrest, which can be modified by simply turning a knob. All components are made from stainless steel, plastic, or aluminum, with hard-coat anodization applied to aluminum parts in contact with stainless steel ones to prevent corrosion. While this design isn't 100% complete due to engineering school demands, I would love to see it come to fruition. My contact details are included in the PDF. An accidental inclusion of a manikin from GrabCAD is not my work. Thank you!
