Hanging Chair from boom

Looking for a Christmas present and I have seen a canvas style chair that hargs from the boom in a magazine but now I can't find it. Does anyone know the company that makes these?

Mine is not a proper chair as you might be looking, but it does the job. Its one of those chairs to go up the mast, and I rig it using a spare main halyard, to reduce boom stress.

Bought on line from Westmarine.

We have a chair we hang from a halyard.
We tie it off to a bow cleat to keep it away from the mast.

Is this what your looking for?

I can find a supplier for you if you like, but I think I would start with West Marine. I'm sure they have them. Another source I like to use is Go2Marine. I think that is where we got ours.
