Bosun Chairs
A bosun chair is the only way to comfortably get up to the heights of the main mast. Sometimes referred to as a boatswain chair, several styles are offered by Defender Marine including the newest technology and conversion kits for older style chairs.
What is a bosun chair?
Rigged for safety but definitely not for the faint at heart, a bosun chair is the only way to get up a mast and still have your hands free for rigging or maintenance work. In the simplest terms, this is a seat that hangs from the rigging and allows you to easily climb the mast.
Rigging a Bosun chair right
Main lines, safety lines, and detailed instructions. All of the bosun chairs from Defender Marine come with detailed instructions. Newer brands of bosun chairs imparting the most advanced technology also provide instructional videos! Rig it right and be safe by following all manufacturers' instructions.
How (and if!) to use a bosun chair
No guts, no glory? A good bit of nerve is not the only thing you'll need to get up that mast. A bosun chair runs on manpower ? the user will need some leg muscle ? either for climbing or for pushing up the rope. And do not try it with a fear of heights because there's nowhere to go but down!
