3.  Project Description  Current State  Desired State  Stakeholders  Customer Requirements  Engineering Requirements  Project Schedule

4. Two previous revision of the Skipper’s Chair have been designed for disabled individuals to maneuver the Sonar Sailboat under recreational and competitive use. This design easily allows one person to perform the necessary tasks typically allocated for multiple people.

6.  Seat is adjustable for 90% of populace  Fits in a regulation sonar boat  Has quick release tiller  Ready for competition and daily use  Requires minimal effort from the user

7.  System weight is too heavy  Installation time is long  Too many custom machined parts  Did not meet boom height requirement  Complicated installation ◦ Needed own tool box

8.  Minimal customized parts  Minimal assembly, installment, and adjustment time  Must have simplified instructions for volunteers

9.  Minimal weight without reducing comfort/safety  Materials must be impervious to environmental effects/wear  Maximize Factor of Safety

10.  Minimize cost of system  Reduce assembly time ◦ 13032  Build time = 30 minutes  Assembly time = 15 minutes  Adjustment time = 30 minutes  Maintain safety and personal adjustment capabilities

14.  User friendly ◦ Simplified work instructions ◦ Requires minimal effort from user  Ease of install ◦ Reduced weight ◦ Time ◦ Reduce number of pieces  Must be portable

16.  Seat adjustable to boom height  Materials ◦ Corrosion resistance ◦ Lightweight  Durability

17. Engineering Requirements0 Secure to sonar with non-permanent attachments Seat adjustable to boom height Hand crank adjustments (aft/bow) Corrosion resistance Multiple seat position on rail Minimum FOS of critical elements Steps required to release rudder in emergency Full Sonar Capability Time required to attach or detach hands Full Assembly Time Time to adjust system to new user Reduce number of custom parts Reduce machining hours Reduce sub-assembly build time Allow room for cushion in seat Reliability Hand Crank Gearing Weight reduction Grab Handle at top of seat Have enough room for rest of crew User Manual Customer Requirements Portable chair system for Sonar X Seat adjusts in realation to boom Lower total cost X X Ease of assembly and adjustment XXX Eliminate line cross-over - reliability X X Increased durability X Weight reduced X Mechanical Advantage X Reduce installation time X Seat position along rail must be easily adjustable X Ease of Use X Team member ease of use X XX X XXX
