John, Thanks for the link to Crazy Creek and to everyone who has replied. I like the idea of using it with an inflatable pad. I used to own one that I think I let go when I sold my CD Tyhoon Sr. a number of years ago. I remember that it was a comfortable little chair that is easy to stow or take with you. I had forgotten about it. The West Marine chair is much larger and takes up more space, but it can also be used as a cockpit chair or flat cushion. I've owned both and I'll probably go with the Crazy Creek chair and inflatable pads. Thanks again to all who have responded. I appreciate everyone's feedback. Enjoy your day. Mark "John R.

At five bucks cheaper, I feel it is not only a better buy, but much better construction. Check the specs on both. I use mine in the cockpit for sailing, and in the cabin for reading before nodding off at night when anchored out. Do it now! You can't do it any younger .--.-. | ( ( )__ \ _ / (_, \ ) ,_) | -== (_) ==- -'--`--' /|\ / \ / | \ | ^^ / | \ / | \ ^^ /361| \ / | \ / | \ ^^ / | \ ___/____| \ ______|_ \ ___ _______/ ==== \___\___/ | ÂMONTGOMERY 15 / ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~^~~^=~^~~-=~^~^~=~^~=~~^~= ~^~=~~^=~^~~^~^=~^~-~^~~^~= ^~=~^~=~~^~~=~~=~^~=~~^~~^~^^ John Butler - First M15 was #264 _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.
