For those interested, I was able to determine that the Bass Hunter seat brackets will not work for the Pelican Bass Raiders. Their dimensions are too narrow at 25.5" x 25 5/8 vs. the 27" x 24" that we need. I'm actually driving 2 hours to Greenville SC to pick up 2 at Academy this evening. As of this morning, they have 2 more. If you want to PayPal me the money, I'll pick up the other two and ship them to you. I know I'm just a random guy on the internet, but I believe in the honor system and would be glad to help out a fellow fisherman in need. I'm also not going to cancel the store to store transfer that I initiated, so at some point 2 more should be coming to me. I'd be happy to do the same with those 2 if you don't get this in time for todays transaction.

My boat seat bracket purchase resolution: Last week, I bought my Pelican 10E from Craigslist and drove the wonderful 2 hours home. Felt that I got a great deal on it, the modified jetski trailer, 45# TM, and marine battery. I was stoked to get to registering and hit the water. I got home and both seat brackets/swivels/seats were gone. I didn't think to secure or remove, I'm not sure if they flew out or were grabbed on one of my stops. I figured it would be a quick and easy replacement, but as we all know it is not. After several exhausting hours I did locate a couple at an Academy in FL ($39.99 each). I tried to get them to ship direct and they could/would not so I had to go to my local store and initiate a store to store transfer to my closest Academy. According to Academy this can take up to a month, wth? But its the only resolution I could find away from pedalboats.com who wanted $65 a piece for them + $45.00 shipping. They would not ship against my account number or work with me in any way. Hope this helps someone! The one I just picked up had a bilge pump in the back wired to the battery and a switch. Its rained several times since I have gotten it and I just flip the switch and the water is forced out a hose off the side. Seems to work perfectly and I wouldn't have thought of it. Let me know if you want pics, I can get some when I get home.
