Ocean Tamer Comfort Seats Are First Class!  by Jack Holmes



I spotted this portable tent with several bright, multicolored, beanbag seats on display at the Naples King Mackerel Tournament. It was a nice display and being the curious guy I am, I wandered over to have a closer look. “These are great,” I thought to myself. “Great quality, love the colors, and a style for everyone.” When I sat in one I was even more impressed. It was then I met Frank Abruzzino, Vice President of Sales for Ocean Tamer Marine Grade Bean Bags. “This is something our fishermen could use,” I told Frank and he came back with, “That’s why I’m here, to showcase our product and support the event.” He went on to tell me about the product. Every marine beanbag product from Ocean-Tamer is made in the USA with 100% marine grade materials and backed by a full lifetime warranty. The use of 100% marine grade vinyl, heavy duty marine grade thread and zippers, strong nylon strap handles, and virgin polystyrene beads provide you with a high quality product that is comfortable, durable, and will last for years to come. Ocean-Tamer Marine Grade Bean Bags are available in three sizes, four styles, and 32 colors; you are sure to find the right marine beanbag for your boating and fishing needs. Frank had me sold, but who were these people? I’ve learned in the marine industry to beware of manufacturers who have a good product but are short on longevity. Frank then piped in to give me the answer I was looking for. Ocean-Tamer Marine Grade Bean Bags is a product of Custom Marine Canvas, Inc, a company that has custom-made high quality marine seating and upholstery products for over 30 years. In business since 1978, Custom Marine Canvas, Inc has been featured on Ship Shape TV and is known around west central Florida for their high quality marine canvas and upholstery products as well as their devoted customer service. Doing work on boats ranging from 15’ to over 100’, from center consoles to large yachts, Custom Marine Canvas, Inc has been able to develop the perfect marine bean bag chair to suit every boat owners needs. He finished his explanation with “The Ocean-Tamer staff are avid boaters and experienced fishermen who know the importance of comfort and safety on the water, especially during rough sea conditions. Ocean-Tamer’s high quality marine seating products prevent back discomfort, neck pain, and vessel fatigue caused by the long rides offshore. Rough sea conditions are not only uncomfortable, but unsafe as well. Ocean-Tamer Marine Grade Bean Bags are designed to absorb the shock and pounding of rough seas but also sits you close to the deck and surrounds your body for maximum comfort plus gives you an extremely safe ride. Every Ocean-Tamer Marine seating product has been tournament tested to withstand sea conditions that the average boater will never face. ”Sold! Sold! Sold! Frank told me everything I wanted to know, so I invited him to become a part of the SKA family. Ocean Tamer is starting their venture with the SKA as a web site participant and will be at various events this season in Florida, then will bring their display to the National Championship. I encourage you to visit their web site at www.Ocean-Tamer.com or you can click on their banner when you’re on the SKA site checking your points. It will take you right to their site. But be careful, it could take you some time, not only picking the colors that would match your boat, but the style of chair that’s right for you!

Marine Bean Bags by Miss Judy Charters

The Old Time Bean Bag Made New!
http://www.ocean-tamer.com/


I had a great conversation with Frank Abruzzino of
http://www.ocean-tamer.com/ yesterday. I called him, because I am looking for some extra seating for my customers. Believe me he has the ticket for this ride. I visited his site and he is offering some nice custom-made marine beanbags, which will work just fine for my application. As I thought about it I had seen these so called beanbags before on lots of the center console “king fishing type boats.” One day while fishing about 40 miles offshore I noticed a boat heading my way slowly, but it looked so strange. The fact of the matter is I had to get my binoculars out so as to get a “good look see.” To my amazement it was about a 25 foot center console with three large bean bags thrown up on the “T-top!” From a distance, I have to admit, it looked strange for sure. This brought to light “prefect comfortable as well as movable seating!”



So Called “Almost Looks Like” Bean Bags From Another Era!
As with anything there is a story to be told. I saw something similar in the 1970’s long before Ocean-Tamer Marine Bean Bags had been invented and most long before the owners had been born. I watched as a small boat was “making way fast” with the up most unusual cargo. The boat was stacked up with rows and rows on top of one another of what could have been bean bags, but wasn’t. Back then we saw it floating high in the ocean all of the time. (Great line, “floating high!) Not only that, but on some occasions we would see it being “off loaded” from a single shrimp boat. When you saw a shrimp boat with lots of small boats surrounding it “it definitely was time to exit stage right out of the area.”


In the seventies these brown bales were called “square grouper.” While heading home one day, I saw something brown floating right under the surface; I stopped, and picked it up with my gaff. It was what we used to call “a brown croaker sack” back in the old days. The label on the sack read like this “Columbian Gold.” What was another name for square grouper back in the seventies? “Strong black coffee!”



The bottom line to this story line is a simple one. If you want some very comfortable seating, which is light in weight and stackable in out of the way places give Frank a call 1-941-776-1133 or visit web site http://www.ocean-tamer.com/ Because that’s exactly what I am going to do!
