That looks extremely severe. I bet it takes some getting used to feeling the cockpit and your seat moving independently from the boat.

A reduction from 17gs to 4gs is remarkable.

Statement Marine uses shock absorbing technology for the cockpit in their 40+ footer.

Magnum 27's has shock absorbing seats as do many others, Many use spring loaded posts

Stidd systems out by me makes an incredible line of seats, one of the most interesting is the fly by wire seats for the submarines. Driving a modern sub is almost like a video game a seat with joy sticks and switches.

The system in the boat in the video is made by a local company, they have advanced the "original" idea for this kind of seat........

Since I have a bench seat, I use a whoopee cushion..

One of our northern brothers is installing pneumatics on his 22' .......Ed

Cool video but you guys are wimps!

I like that shaken not stirred feeling......kinda like when you were 10 yrs old and had your first, fast ride on the wooden bench of a 13' Whaler. :bonk:
