My Stepson bought a Hobie Mirage 12 ft single seat. He wants to put a seat in the rear for his 8 year old to ride with him. He has a 2-3 acre pond that he’ll use it on. Any advice for mounting one that wouldn’t compromise stability?

There is not much room for attachment of a seat back there. You would need to take extra care on how you attach the seat to prevent stress cracks there is no real support inside the hull. Stability wise he will be sitting higher than his dad, would worry about him leaning to far to one side and flipping the Hobie, 12 ft is not really that long. Now if you had a Pro Angler 14 I would have less concern.
