i dont know i hate getting sand jammed in the seat, they can be a nightmare, plus you get a better grip on the rod with coasters?
wash the rod down after it's been used then u won't have that problem

You can measure the butt diameter using a piece of string mate. Just wrap the string around the but and mark where it meets then lay it out straight and measure that
