I was actually just thinking about this yesterday. I saw a picture of a boat with a swivel drivers seat and it made me think about it. I dont think it would too terribly difficult.

Lol, again with another mod I'm planning on doing. We did it to our last boat. I used a piece of aluminum cut to roughly the size of the seat base, and mounted the swivel to it, and mounted that to the seat base, then use another piece of aluminum on the other side of the swivel and bolt it back to the slider rails. You could also do it opposite and mount to the bottom of the slider and the floor mount. Hopefully that makes sense.

Exactly. I think I've seen them for around $8 or $9 bucks at Acedemy Sports.

I did my own install on my '07 LSV and used a 12 position swivel from Bass Pro so could lock it in place and keep it from swiveling too far around. Here's some pics.

I did mine very similar to Razz's except I used spacers for the top plate and the swivel bolts right into the factory 06, 07, 08, moombas not sure on the supra's but really an easy uprade. I used a non-locking swivel because we surf a lot and I like being able to turn around quickly w/o having to unlock the seat. The other thing to think about when buying a swivel is not to buy one with poly bushings. Make sure its all steel. For the extra 6 dollars its worth it.
