Default Fighting Chair Wanted - Places to Buy

I am looking for a small fighting chair with footrest and cushions (80 lb or smaller) to add to my aft deck. Anyone know who might have a good deal on one - new or used. The chair will be used more for sitting than fighting so while Pompanette, Murray Bros. etc are nice, no need to break the bank. Thanks.

We have this simple chair by Todd.* As you can see its rotationally mounded plastic of some kind.* Quite durable.* No foot rest and its really only good for up to about 50 pound gear, but that's what we troll with anyway.* It has a wide bottom to accomodate people with same, a cutout in both the chair and the bottom cushion for the center gimbaled rod holder, a pair of side striking arms, cushions for arms, bottom and back (though we prefer the slotted*open ******.* This small chair sits on a standard 2 7/8" pedistal so hardware can be had anywhere.* Obviously its not in the league with the big boys but it has proved an*effective seat to have in the boat and quite comfortable too, particularly at about a third the cost of even a small true fighting chair with footrest.

There have been a couple of Pompanettes on Ebay. You might find what you are looking for.

I have a Pompanette Sailfish model for sale, teak sides, teak backrest, 2 rodholders in wrist rests, ball bearing swivel base, & footrest hardware, but no footrest.
