Boat seating for infants & toddlers

    I was wondering if anyone has a seating solution for kids.

    We have an infant @ 7months old & a 3 year old.

    Obviously strapping & buckling them into a car seat would be the worst thing in case of an emergency or may not?. How can you keep them from bouncing about the cabin other than holding on to them the entire time?
    We will be on a 27' Seasport wich isnt exactly a yacht but probably the closest we will ever get :) .

    Where I live, all kids have life jackets on as soon as they get close to a boat. Best incentive is if all of the family has it. The smallest use to be for 5-10 kg so it should probably fit your 7 month baby.

    Other than that, you just have to drive carefully and keep an eye on the crew...;)

    Thanks for the quote!
    I agree, the life jackets are a;ways part of the deal, its really just the seating issue. Has anyone ever hear of some sort of car seat solution but for boats?

    Thanks in advance for your comments.
