Introducing the new Matrix S25 Pro Black Edition Seatbox, which follows on from the success of the previous cult status S25 Seatbox in the seatbox uk market. Matrix have managed to integrate many features from the flagship Matrix XR Pro Seatbox to create a new modernised version of the popular S25 seatbox.
This matrix seatbox uses 25mm round legs which creates maximum stability on even the most awkward of banks. All 6 legs on the seatbox are extending so you can ensure that you can get your fishing seatbox level to be fully comfortable. The textured anti-slip anodised legs also allow you to make sure that all your seatbox accessories remain in place when tightened to the seatbox leg, without the risk of scratching the leg. Each leg on the seatbox has threaded caps which can be removed if you wish to use in conjunction with the corresponding Matrix Leg Extenders.
Moving towards the design from the Matrix XR36 Pro, the new S25 Pro Seatbox features a minimal backplate design, with frame cover panels. The main frame of the seat box, has been comprised of lightweight aluminium , to ensure that the frame is both lightweight and super strong.
Making the seatbox even more user friendly is the ability for the seatbox units on top of the frame being fully customisable right through to the choice of the bottom tray. Furthermore, the runners on the tray supplied with the stacker unit can be removed and used on any matrix tray unit, which allows you to always take the tray units required for any given session.
The stacking unit also now features improved runners and mechanism, meaning it is now even easier to slide the unit in place and remove. A key feature if you are a coarse/match angler who likes to keep the stacking unit in place on the seatbox while fishing and need quick access.
The footplate now utilises a durable textured plastic footplate cover. This prevents your feet from slipping off the platform when fishing, and gives a solid base for your feet and increased stability when fishing the pole at long lengths.
Another new feature on the footplate is the new spring pin footplate locking mechanism. This allows the footplate to be quickly and easily locked in position. Just pull the footplate out and the spring loaded pin will lock the footplate in position.
This Seatbox now features enlarged handwheels, making it a lot easier to grip the handhweels and either undo or tighten them. Especially in cold and wet conditions that we are often faced with in the UK winters.
There is also an integrated spirit level in both the seat and footplate that helps make setting up and easy and stress free process. This means there is now no excuse for not setting up flat and level and this will maximise your comfort when fishing on the seatbox for longer periods.
All Matrix Seatbox Trays are compatible with one another, so if you already have a Matrix Seatbox then you will be able to use all your existing trays if you choose to upgrade.
Supplied with the seatbox is a removable padded strap for the angler who chooses to carry their fishing gear. This strap fixes to 4 separate points on the frame of the seatbox and makes sure that the seatbox remains fully upright when carrying so does not tip and deposit the contents of the drawers along the bank.
The dimensions of this seatbox when fully set up and open are 781mm (length)x 721mm (width). For those anglers that do not have as much space in their car, the closed dimensions are 540mm (length) x 721mm (width).
The weight of this matrix seat box is 16kg, so even with all the new structural improvements and increased durability, Matrix have been able to keep the seatbox the same weight as the preceding S25.
Supplied with the following Matrix Seatbox Spares:
-Deep Drawer Unit – Supplied with removable internal dividers and is perfect for all small accessories such as disgorgers, feeders, toss pots, and line that you may need throughout a session.
-Shallow Tray Unit – Perfect for storing winders and can be used in conjunction with the Matrix Loaded Pole Winder Trays which are supplied in 13mm (light blue), 18mm (Lime Green) and 26mm (Dark Blue or Purple).
