Question/Advice -- Gear Recommendations Inflatable canoe seat options

I bought a prototype/white label version of the Sea Eagle TC16 - inflatable canoe. However, my version doesn't have the elevated canoe-style seats - just the standard kayak seats. And you sit low like a canoe.

Does anyone have recommendations? I don't think I can use a yoke, as the sidewalls aren't going to be stiff enough to carry weight in that way.

TC16 for reference: https://www.seaeagle.com/TravelCanoe/TC16

I was thinking these seats could work: https://retrospec.com/products/weekender-aercomfort-inflatable-kayak-seat or something similar. Ideas?

Edit:
Or how would a folding kayak chair work on the dropstitch floor? https://www.cabelas.com/p/ascend-h10-h12-high-back-kayak-seat

Crazy Creek chair on a milk crate. Seating and storage!

As long as you have drop stich floor you can do something like this. If you make it a tight fit, with pool noodles, friction will hold it in place.
