Charter Helm Low-Back with Bloster (Off White) (1042145-01)
Experience the ultimate in marine comfort and durability with the Charter Helm Low-Back with Bolster (Off White) model 104214501. Engineered for serious boaters and long rides, this premium helm seat delivers performance, versatility and luxury—all in one.
Key features and benefits:
- Reclining backrest: With a back that tilts up to 45°, this seat gives you exceptional comfort and posture support during extended runs or variable sea conditions.
- Bolster and low-back design: The integrated bolster allows a higher seating/standing posture which improves visibility and control at the helm, while the low-back silhouette keeps things sleek and unobstructed.
- Plush foam cushioning: Designed to absorb vibration and bounce, the thick, high-density foam layer promotes fatigue-free steering and better ride quality.
- Heavy-duty powder-coated steel frame: Built for boating’s harsh environment, the robust steel frame resists rust and corrosion, and the powder-coating adds extra durability and marine-safe finish.
- Suspension springs: Incorporated into the frame, these springs add cushioning and flex to the ride—especially beneficial in chop or rough water.
- Premium weather-resistant marine-grade vinyl upholstery: The off-white finish isn’t just aesthetic—it’s crafted from thicker vinyl designed to resist UV fading, mildew, salt spray and general wear, making it ideal for salt-water and fresh-water installations alike.
- Flip-up armrests and headrest (adjustable): The premium flip-up armrests let you configure the seat for hard-running or relaxed cruising modes, and the headrest enhances back-and-neck support when you need it.
- Universal mounting pattern (5″ × 12″): Simplifies installation on most helm pedestals or deck bases. You won’t have to worry about custom drilling or compatibility issues—just line up the bolt pattern and mount securely.
- Off-white color: A modern, clean appearance that matches many boat interiors and adds a bright, fresh look to your helm station.
- Model 104214501: Authentic OEM part, continuously referenced across marine seating catalogs.
Why this seat stands out:
Whether you’re running offshore, guiding a charter boat, or just enjoying long days on the water, you want a helm seat that doesn’t compromise on comfort or reliability.
This model from Springfield Marine (the OEM seating specialist) offers a best-in-class blend of ergonomic design, rugged construction, and premium materials.
The mounted springs soften the ride. The adjustable bolster and flip-up armrests give you control. The universal pattern means fast, clean installation. The UV-resistant vinyl means it looks good season after season.
Installation & usage tips:
- Make sure the boat’s mounting surface is flat, clean and free of corrosion before installing the seat.
- Use marine-grade stainless hardware to match the durability of the frame.
- If operating in salt water, rinse periodically with fresh water and apply a UV protectant to the vinyl to preserve color and texture.
- Adjust the headrest and armrests once seated to your preferred posture before heading out.
- For standing-position driving with the bolster raised, confirm that your view and control visibility lines are unobstructed.
Ideal for:
- Center-console boats, sport-fishing vessels, offshore rigs and any craft where helm comfort and visibility are critical.
- Boaters who spend hours at the helm and want to reduce fatigue, improve posture, and elevate the look and feel of their boat’s helm station.
- Anyone upgrading a standard helm chair to a premium seating solution with bolster, suspension features, and high-end vinyl.
