 Topic: 1992 Correct Craft Gull-Wing Observer SeatPosted: July-21-2021 at 1:55pm |

Hi guys! Just bought my first correct craft! It's a 19' SNOB and after reading the manual I saw that the "gull-wing observer seat" has a gas spring to keep it upright. I haven't been able to keep it upright. Has anybody else had this issue and know a fix? Thanks!

Alex,
Welcome to CCfan. The gas shocks do loose their charge and the easy fix is to replace them. Take a look here: |

I just replaced mine. It's on the page that Pete referenced. If you buy one somewhere else just make sure it has eyelets on both ends not the push on connections.

FYI, my current shocks are now 7 years old and getting weak. They don't last forever darnit.

It won't work. !!! Make sure it has eyelets on both ends not the push on ball and socket connections !!! These are harder to find. Buy it from NP. They are a site sponsor and you will get one that works.
Also, use "PND" in the coupon code section to get the discount.

Hmm are you sure? I looked at the picture on amazon and it looks like it has the eyelets.
