This new bucket-chair has a sporty look with premium comfort. Flip-up bolster at the front provides elevated seating for improved visibility and better slow-speed manoeuvring. An innovative suspension at the core in connection with a luxurious seat pan cushion absorbs bumps up to 3 g (!) without transferring this shock to the user. More than 70 mm (3") suspension-travel assures the user a smooth ride with maximum comfort. Inserts for ¼"UNC screws To use metric screws we recommend our aluminium adapter-plate with metric threads for Pörtner Seats/Zwaardvis ancillary parts.


Problem
While underway tough bumps of the hull reduce comfort considerably. Repeated impact may cause pain and even disk injury.

Solution
Impact is absorbed by a SAS (Shock Absorption System) suspension in connection with a thick high density foam cushion. Both take a 3 g hit by providing 70 mm (3 inches) of travel for a soft landing without »bottoming out«.
3 g means approximately 3 times of body weight. Even while idle or sitting still the SAS suspension adds long term comfort.
