The hosts at Culburra Oval opened the match's scoring in the 17th minute through Kasey Kulcsar before that goal was cancelled out by Gary Niemeier nine minutes later.
This 1-all dead lock remained for the next 53 minutes before Seagulls' Michael Hampton scored the winner in the 79th minute - securing the visitors their ninth straight win and extended their unbeaten streak to 13 games.
The one-goal win sees Rob Hawker's troops move onto 40 points, eight clear of second-placed Bomaderry, who were held by Manyana 2-all.

The 1-all scoreline lasted less than one minute, as Tyler Buchanan restored the hosts one-goal lead in the 49th minute.
But the visitors would have the last laugh, as Billy Zappas' 83rd minute strike saw the match end 2-all.
Sitting four points adrift of the Tigers on 28 are both Culburra and St Goerges Basin - with the latter moving back inside the top four thanks to a 6-nil thrashing of Shoalhaven Heads-Berry.
At the St Georges Basin Sporting Complex, Tim White scored a hat-trick for the Dragons, with his goals coming in the 12th, 24th and 71st minutes.

But Andrew Timbs' Roos weren't going to lie down and got back on level terms in the 75th minute through Jarred Mutch.
Despite numerous chances in the final 15 minutes, neither team could find the decisive winner, seeing the pair share the spoils.
The final match of the round was won by Milton-Ulladulla, who defeated the Sussex Seahawks 3-2 at Lighthouse Oval.
