I have been looking into 'Pool Chairs'. (As in Billiard, not
swimming..).

They are rather heavy construction, about the right height, well
padded, etc. On a Alaskan pilot house in the slip near me, the helm
chair looked like one of these. It had a SS rod in the middle that
fixed the chair to the floor (Turn buckle to take up tension). Seemed
like a good idea as well.

However, have not found the chair I like yet, mostly because the wood
tends to be oak, or stained oak.

Seems to me , the two weak points physically while cruising are

1. Getting out of shape (you sit at the helm for hours on end, daily.]

2. the most improtant seat in the boat, the helm seat, is usually very
uncomcortable. Looking for recomendations on seats.

thanks
