unless tackle is between rubber and bowl

I've yet to see a bump rubber in the central front area of a seat. Though
from other posts it appears they do exist.

Precarioulsy balanced upright seats due to poor design, fitting or fluffy
seat covers is probably the root cause of the problem but I doubt the
statistics include that level of detail.
