Harken has developed a safe, reliable Bosun’s Chair for sailors. High-strength and lightweight, this comfortable chair comes with wide-mouth pockets and lanyard attachments. A wide seat provides a secure platform, while the chair's low halyard attachment gives sailors more room to work on the boat. The chair is made of heavy-duty polyester canvas with a ply seat padded with 1 ” thick foam. Includes an adjustable safety belt and two roomy pockets for tools. A carrying case is included.
The Harken Bosun's Chair was elected the Budget Buy for Mast-Climbing Devices and the Recommended choice for a conventional bosun's chair in the Practical Sailor June 2010 issue. Harken received very good marks in construction, comfort, and toolbag/pockets. "The Harken bosen's chair would be our first pick for someone who puts comfort as the highest priority. Testers felt very secure in this seat, and the additional padding was appreciated. Multiple attachment points and deep pockets are a plus" ("Go Aloft Safely: Ups and Downs of Bosun Chairs." Practical Sailor Vol. 36 No. 6, p. 8-13).
