Abstract
A seat assembly for a marine vessel includes a base to be connected to a deck of the marine vessel, a seat supported by the base, and an actuator. The actuator adjusts a position of the seat with respect to the base in at least one of the following ways: to translate the seat in a front-back direction with respect to the base, to raise and lower the seat with respect to the base, to tilt the seat at various angles with respect to the base, and to rotate the seat with respect to the base. The seat assembly also includes a controller in signal communication with the actuator, and the controller activates the actuator to adjust the position of the seat with respect to the base to a predetermined position.
