Taylor Made Pilot Chair

Taylor Made Pilot Chairs: Command Comfort at the Helm

When it comes to seating where it matters most — the helm — Taylor Made brings more than a century of marine craftsmanship to every chair. With a history in the marine market dating back to 1908, Taylor Made's reputation has steadily strengthened over the last 100-plus years. That deep-rooted expertise carries directly into their pilot chair lineup, where performance, durability, and comfort converge for the boater at the wheel.

Built for the Demands of the Marine Environment

A pilot chair isn't just a seat — it's the command center of your vessel. Taylor Made engineers their helm and pilothouse seating specifically for the rigors of life on the water. Their helm and pilothouse seats are constructed for performance, comfort, and longevity in the marine environment, featuring a corrosion-resistant, e-coated steel frame and stainless hardware. These aren't compromises — they are deliberate design choices made to endure saltwater spray, UV exposure, and seasons of hard use.

Taylor Made pilot chairs are designed for comfort with multiple density foam packs, headrests, the ability to recline, and self-leveling arms. Ultra Leather® premium, soft touch vinyl resists UV rays, mold, and mildew, while mesh pockets and dynamic stitch lines provide modern styling. The result is a seat that looks sharp at launch and holds up just as well years down the line.

The Black Label and Helm Seating Lines

The Black Label Helm Seating offers ultimate luxury at the helm or pilot house with the highest quality Ultra Leather® premium, soft touch, marine-grade vinyl and high-comfort, durable multiple density foam packs. For boaters who demand both style and substance at the helm, this line represents the top of Taylor Made's seating portfolio.

Low, mid, and high back seats are available, with mid and high back models offered with and without a bolster — giving you the flexibility to configure the helm station exactly as you need it, whether you're running a center console, a sport cruiser, or a full pilothouse vessel.

A Brand Built by Boaters, for Boaters

Through innovation, design, and an extraordinary amount of expertise, Taylor Made has proven over and over to be a leader in manufacturing high-quality marine products — and every Taylor Made product is constructed by boaters, for boaters, right here in the United States. That philosophy is evident in every stitch, every frame weld, and every material choice found in their pilot chair lineup.

With over a century of experience, Taylor Made marine systems have been tested and proven in various marine environments — from calm inland lakes to demanding offshore conditions.
