Captain's Chair (CPT)
What is a Captain's Chair (CPT)?The helm chair: the seat behind the steering wheel. Usually on a pedestal with armrests, and often a flip-up front edge (bolster) so you can lean against it while standing. All those curved panels and seams are why it's our most involved job.

Your Estimate

Updates live as you build.

Add at least one seat above to see your price.

This estimate is honored as long as your seats match what you entered (normal wear, standard shapes, frames intact). Heavily damaged frames, rotted wood bases, or unusual custom shapes may adjust the final number, but we'll always confirm with you before any work starts. Estimate valid 30 days.
