Yes. If you look at the picture of the rear cockpit, the child seat is the black box in front of the seat. It is just a slightly contoured plastic box for a child to sit on (legs forward). It is removable by two thumb screws near the cup holder on the dash. (seen as black dots in the picture) I don't have kids, nor do i ever plan to take kids in my boat, but I haven't decided if I am going to remove the child seat or not. It only takes about 30 seconds to remove. It hasn't gotten in my way yet, and it adds a bit of rigidity to the hull when transporting although i'm not sure how much it adds.
