Attwood Marine

<h3>About Attwood Marine</h3><p><strong>Attwood Marine</strong> has been a cornerstone of the boating world for over a century. Founded with a commitment to quality engineering and practical design, Attwood grew from manufacturing underwater hardware and on-deck fittings into one of the most recognized names across every segment of the marine accessories market. Today, the brand operates as part of the Navico Group by Brunswick — a global family of market-leading marine companies — yet it has never lost the focused, boater-first philosophy that built its reputation.</p><p>What sets Attwood apart is their end-to-end approach: they design, manufacture, test, and distribute their own products rather than simply resourcing components from third parties. Every product in their catalog is tested against the highest U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), and CE standards, giving boaters and OEM boat builders alike the confidence that Attwood parts will perform when it matters most. Corrosion-resistant materials — including 304 and 316 stainless steel, chrome-plated zinc, and marine-grade synthetics — are used throughout the lineup to ensure durability in both freshwater and saltwater environments.</p><p>Attwood is also a leading OEM supplier, meaning you'll find their components pre-installed on boats straight from the factory. That pedigree speaks volumes: when boat manufacturers trust a brand to equip new vessels, that's a strong vote of confidence for the aftermarket buyer as well.</p><h3>Attwood Marine Product Categories</h3><p>Attwood's catalog spans a remarkably broad range of marine needs. On the docking and mooring side, their <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-fenders-201953">boat fenders</a> provide reliable hull protection against docks, pilings, and other vessels — an essential piece of gear for any boat owner. For on-water comfort and cockpit organization, Attwood's <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-pedestal-packages-202496">seat &amp; pedestal packages</a> deliver complete seating system solutions backed by years of ergonomic engineering, while their <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-clamp-mounts-202497">seat clamp mounts</a> and <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seat-clamp-mounts-200927">mounting hardware</a> make swapping or positioning seats quick and secure. Rounding out the seating ecosystem, Attwood's broad selection of <a href="/7239-attwood-marine-seating-table-parts-accessories-202501">seating &amp; table parts and accessories</a> keeps every swivel, slide, and fitting performing at its best season after season.</p><p>Beyond seating and docking, Attwood is well known for its bilge and aerator pumps (including the iconic Sahara Mk2 and Tsunami series), navigation lighting, fuel systems, rod holders, and trailering accessories — making it a one-stop resource for outfitting or refreshing virtually any powerboat, fishing boat, or recreational vessel.</p><h3>Why Boaters Trust Attwood</h3><ul><li><strong>100+ years of marine expertise</strong> — a track record that few brands can match</li><li><strong>USCG, ABYC &amp; CE certified</strong> products built to rigorous safety and performance standards</li><li><strong>OEM-preferred supplier</strong> to leading boat manufacturers worldwide</li><li><strong>Corrosion-resistant construction</strong> engineered for saltwater and freshwater environments</li><li><strong>Full design-to-distribution control</strong> ensuring consistent quality across every product</li></ul>

Product Details

The Attwood 278AO3AM1 is a heavy-duty air mount boat seat mount from the 278 Air Series, engineered to deliver exceptional strength, stability, and smooth operation at the helm. Designed for use with 2-7/8" diameter pedestals, this mount is built to handle the demands of oversized helm seats with ease.

The 278 Air System incorporates a dampening gas spring that absorbs wave impact and hull vibration, reducing fatigue during long days on the water. A rigid mount construction combined with a wider seat interface creates maximum pedestal robustness, while the improved slider motion allows easy fore and aft seat adjustment. Added ribbing on the mount body and a positive locking mechanism deliver outstanding strength and on-water stability.

Key Features:

  • 3° tilt angle for ergonomic helm positioning
  • Compatible with 2-7/8" diameter Air Series pedestal posts
  • Short handle design for a compact, low-profile slider
  • Heavy-duty cast construction supports popular oversized helm seats
  • Dampening gas spring absorbs shock and impact
  • Reinforced ribs and positive lock for superior strength and stability
  • Standard 5" 4-hole mounting pattern for easy installation
  • For use with adjustable height pedestals

The Attwood 278 Air Series components are engineered exclusively for 278 Air models. Verify your pedestal series before ordering, as Air Series and Pro Series components are not interchangeable.
