SHOCKWAVE’s bestselling seats, the S3 seats (with 8” shocks) are designed to be used for military missions, law enforcement & border patrol, and the helm seats are often selected for high-end cabin or open boats for pleasure/recreational/tender use. The Jockey seats are typically mounted on deck track systems and used on government vessels with deck space constraints. These S3 seats can also be folded down to conserve space and allow occupants to stand in front of the seat when necessary.
