| "My husband and I have been boating for quite a few years and have participated in a fair share of powerboat races on both Lake Havasu and Lake Mohave out on the West Coast. I must say, even though I enjoy the speed, my back and neck often suffered the consequences and my husband always got an ear full of complaints. Last year we built a new custom boat with a lot of horse power and installed your Seaspension Pedestal for both the driver and side passenger. Oh my God....what a difference!!!!! No matter how choppy the lake is nor the speed we are attempting, my body no longer is getting beat up. It has made boating fun again and I'm sure my husband appreciates my silence. I really can't even envision ever building another boat or even wanting to ride in someone else's unless Seaspension Pedestals are installed!" Cydney. O27' Custom Off-Shore

| "It is rare for a consumer to write a letter raving about a product, however in the case of the Seaspension posts, it is a well-earned compliment. Your posts were recently installed on our Boston Whaler, and the results have been dramatic. In our case, my wife has severe back problems and we were searching for a product that would ease the jarring motion. She loves boating but couldn't really enjoy the outings. With your posts however, the impact is diminished so much -- even in the Gulf's choppy waters, boat rides are now a joy." Juan & Eva J.20' Boston Whaler |
| "It is the intent of the race team to field a competitive race boat for years to come, and we are looking forward to working with Seaspension Technologies, Inc. along the way. We feel confident that by adding the Seaspension product to our race boat, it will give us that leading edge. The world of Offshore Racing can be very demanding, and at times we will find ourselves racing in 8-10 foot seas. By improving the ride quality of the race boat, the driver and throttle man can stay focused on the task at hand. This translates into a much safer boat, as we won't get jostled about running the boat at maximum speeds." Warren M. |
| "Thank you very much for your invitation to participate in the sea trial of the Seaspension shock-absorbing seat. You installed the shock absorbing Bench in my 26' Scarab Sportster and it has performed beyond my expectations. The posts are of superior quality, and with approximately 150 hours of offshore abuse, are proving their durability. The seat has allowed me to make 25-35 mile offshore trips with ease and comfort. The ability to sit down in 3-5 ft. seas, being isolated from the pounding of the boat, allowed me better control, faster speeds, and less fatigue. I have also found the posts performed well under less demanding circumstances. My wife and I like to take an occasional dinner cruise, and she's found that they have provided her isolation form the jolts that irritate her bad back. Now she won't cruise without them! After using the Seaspension product, I'll never go back to a rigid post again! This is one boating accessory I highly recommend for any size and type of boat. Alan H. |
| "I tested the new Seaspension post on our 20' Auqasport chase boat in three to four foot chop on Tampa Bay during one of our northern weather fronts. I have to let you know how incredible this product performed. Before, In this type of condition I could never sit in my seat, but would have to stand and hold the console "T" top rail in one hand and the wheel in the other, it was very fatiguing. Now, sitting in the seat, I can keep the boat on plane, keep both hands on the wheel for safety, stay in the seat after hitting a few five foot waves, and didn't feel any impact shutters that normally go up my spine during a trip like this. The Seaspension post does what it is supposed to do--It's a great new product very much needed in the boating industry." Jopie H.20' Aquasport |
| "Without a doubt, the center attraction of the Avenger's interior was the seating system. These ultra-cool tripodal bolsters featured variable-rate springs and hydraulic shock absorbers in each pedestal.

"The Seaspension® tripod bolster configuration, with Mitigator seat cushion and PPI racing seat provided by High-Priority Offshore Racing Team, were tested at Sea Systems Impact Testing Laboratories. The first test was a 5.5 G test, using the equipment stated, and results showed that the mannequin felt an impact of approx. 2.5 G's - a 55% reduction. The second test was conducted at approx. 24 G's, using the stated equipment, and results showed that the mannequin felt an impact of approx. 3.5 G's - a reduction of 86%" (Photo Courtesy of SEA Systems Group) |
| "On February 19th I was introduced to Peter Burer at the Miami boat show. He introduced me to Seaspension. I was very interested in the product because I race offshore power boats. We retrofitted my existing bolster seats with a new tripod design. Since that time I have participated in three high speed Poker runs. I have found that the seats really work. I am pleased with the product results. At 85 miles per hour I was able to pilot the boat while sitting in the bolster seat. I recommend this product for any serious boater." Sincerely, Craig D. 33' Scarab |

"Had chance to really use mine the other day in a chop about 3's and 4's and I found myself bracing for the road bumps but there weren't any. As TOL said it is the "Best Money My Back Has Ever Spent". 2007 Parker 2120 Sport-Cabin Modified

| I bought and installed the Seaspension post and it has been super for my old back. I have a folding captain’s seat on top of it. The bolt pattern matched to the old Parker base perfectly & correct height, so piece of cake to install in my 2007 Parker 2120 pilot house. It even dampens the small chop vibrations. ….It is high quality. Should have had something like this a long time ago. Peter K., Nashville, TN |

I can't tell you how much more I have enjoyed my boat since installing the Seaspension® shock mitigating seat posts. I spend more time boating, I enjoy the ride much more and I am less fatigued! They are an absolute must for any walk - around or pilot house style boat like mine. The forward helm position of these boats can make for a very bumpy ride in all but the calmest of waters. My Seaspension® seats absorb the shock from most all chop. I'm an offshore recreational fisherman who routinely makes 50 – 100 mile runs out in the Gulf of Mexico in my 25’ Pilot House. Nothing is worse than having to endure hours of back wrenching jarring when running in short interval waves. My choice was; buy a bigger boat or try your shock mitigating seat post system. At first, I was a little skeptical as to whether or not they would make a difference. Now, I can say I will never own another boat, whether it's a center console, walk - around or pilot house, without Seaspension® seat posts. Well worth the money and a lot cheaper than a bigger boat! Great product, thank you very much! Larry G., Tampa, Florida |
