Is a halyard out of place or is the light bulb of the masthead lamp broken? On every sailing ship, at some point, important work on the standing rig has to be done. Frequently, the crew member who is pulled into the mast has the feeling of insecurity at first. A Bosun's chair that gives confidence and feels comfortable counteracts this. There is a wide range of products on offer. The classic bosun's chair of the professional shipping industry with wooden seat board is considered to be proven. Bosun's chairs from the maritime-sports sector are usually made of cloth fabric and reinforced with straps. Some designs look like trousers and have adjustable leg, chest, hip and shoulder straps that also prevent the chair from falling out. There are also special mast climbing harnesses that can be fastened even with a life jacket already being worn. These offer great freedom of movement and also make it possible to work in an upright position.
