Ullman’s Approach to Get Cockpits Fit for Task

Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

Ullman at HSBO

CEO Carl Magnus Ullman from Ullman Dynamics gave an impressive scientifically based presentation on the HSBO 2018 about the importance of mitigation seats in combination with consoles.

Preventing injuries is the ultimate goal.

The outcome of their thorough research applies to us all, whether you are a pro or a pleasure boater, tall or small.

I’m nearly 2 m and weigh about 96 kg and I must say that during all my testing of motorboats I never encountered a “body safe” place behind the console. Mass production has the upper hand.

No wonder why their product stands out of the competition and I’m not just saying that because they’re a Friend of RIBs ONLY.

They are scientifically proven to provide better shock mitigation than any other seats. That’s why their product sets the ultimate benchmark and the standard.

I know for certain that some of you here know how important serious seats are for the health on short but especially on long term and being able to perform the job in rough seas, day after day. Sometimes at high speeds…

Our shop has now expanded with the most recent magazines of the Belgian Pneumaticlub to download for free.

Some background information

The magazine is in French.

In line with the objectives of its founder, Michel de Hemptinne fonde le Belgian Pneumaticlub (BPC) en 1976, the Club offers many nautical activities in inland and maritime waters and thus continues to promote the versatility of this type of boat which is enjoying growing success with the public.

The club is also the pleasure of being on the water with friends, of participating and learning to organize navigations that we would not undertake alone. Without forgetting the additional safety potential offered by navigation in a “flotilla”.

Each year, the Club draws up a calendar of outings intended to meet everyone’s expectations: maritime or inland navigation, day or multi-day, in Belgium or abroad, nautical holidays, etc.

Highfield’s Impressive Flagship Sport 900

Karel Overlaet, RIB Advocate

The flagship Sport 900

It’s big, it’s spacious, it’s comfortable, it’s seaworthy.

The aluminum construction of the RIB makes for a durable frame and hull.

The hull of this flagship based on that of the famous Patrol 860, was redesigned by Petter Martens to offer stability and performance as expected. The boat keeps these features up to a speed of 60 knots.

It can be motorized with a max engine power of 425 hp when single engine and 300 hp per engine for twin engines.

Proud to share that Highfield is a good Friend of RIBs ONLY.
