Nothing is more central to a safe and enjoyable boating trip than the helm. The helm deck's vital function is to provide a high level of vessel control and situational awareness. You can ride the boat standing up or sitting down. Standing lets you stretch and stay alert, but it is nice to sit down if you are on the wheel for long stretches.
However, the problem is that most boats fitted with boat helm chairs are laid out poorly for seated driving. The boat helm seat may be too high or far back, not allowing you to comfortably reach the wheel and engine controls, thus increasing pressure on the back.

Remotely Operated Vehicles or ROVs are unoccupied and highly maneuverable underwater machines. They help perform various jobs in the ocean while being operated by a technician at the water surface.
A typical setup of an ROV includes a control room where the operator remotely operates the vehicle using a joystick similar to a video game. ROV is connected to the ship with a group of cables, sending electrical signals back and forth among the operator and the vehicle. ROVs allow maritime investigators to investigate deep-ocean areas that humans cannot safely reach, and ROVs can stay underwater much longer than a human diver, expanding the time available for exploration.
With that said, the ROV operator needs to be at work for long hours, and the work cannot be achieved while standing. Thus, Alu Design offers high-quality ergonomic ROV seats.
