Most chairs are okay....electric ones are no fun though.

How about best boat chair?

I really don't like cockpit cushions.  I tend to use the seats by West Marine...the go anywhere seat.  They are comfortable during a long sail.

As you can tell, I'm old school. I carry one of these wood and canvas chairs aboard and use it to relax on the beach and it fits on the foredeck. I also have a sport-a-seat which is very comfy on the cockpit.

   my daughter would say that its the recliner in my living room (as i do tend to fall asl--- "meditate" there). i however consider my favorite seat to one where i have the tiller in one hand and the mainsheet (or beer) in the other

Reeling in this thread on the first of the year:
   I've learned that relationships are everything. Sure, we love to sail and love our Compacs (who wouldn't?) but they do provide the platform for friendships to be discovered, made and maintained. Looking back on the CLR 2014, I liked the boats but really loved meeting some truly wonderful people. Same is true of the Blackburn Challenge- some great rowing craft and a wonderful race, but the folks I met were icing on the cake. I like cake and I like icing!
   Here's to great friends in 2015!
