How to choose the right dock
It's important to choose the right shape and size of AquaDeck for your boat to ensure a secure and stable fit. AquaDeck offers a range of sizes and shapes to fit different types of boats, so be sure to choose the one that best suits your boating needs. This article will try to guide you to find the best solution for your needs
The AquaDeck is made from durable and high-quality materials, such as drop-stitch technology and reinforced PVC, which make it strong and long-lasting. When properly inflated, the AquaDeck creates a rigid and stable surface that can support the docking of a boat and the weight of its passengers. The buoyancy of the platform also helps to keep the boat a safe distance away from the shore or dock, reducing the risk of damage from waves, currents, or other water hazards.
The Y-shaped AquaDeck is designed to fit boats with a V-shaped hull, while the U-shaped Aqua Deck is designed to fit boats with a rounded hull.
The Y-shaped Dock has two long arms that extend out from a central platform, forming a Y shape. This design allows the AquaDeck to fit snugly against the V-shaped hull of the boat, providing a stable platform for boarding, docking, or other activities. These decks are most suited to V shaped hulls such as fishing boats, waterski boats, smaller wakeboard/wakesurf boats.
The U-shaped Dock has a rounded shape that fits snugly against the rounded hull of the boat. This design allows the AquaDeck to provide a stable platform to exit and enter your boat. This design is great for larger wake boats or boats with a pickle nose design or wider front. Below is the U shape deck and type of boat used for the U shaped design.
The Straight Dock is a versatile and popular option for boaters, offering a simple and functional design that can be used for a wide range of activities. Most boats, jet skis, and pontoons can be docked to the straight dock due to its long side. This deck has boat protectors on both sides, so can easily accommodate two vessels.
In addition to providing a stable and protective platform for docking, the AquaDeck can also help protect your boat from scratches and damage caused by rocks, sand, or other debris in the water. When properly positioned, the AquaDeck creates a barrier between your boat and the surrounding water, helping to keep the hull and other parts of the boat safe from scratches and damage.
In general, it's important to follow all manufacturer instructions and guidelines when using the AquaDeck, including recommendations for safe boarding and use. Always be mindful of your surroundings and any potential hazards when using the AquaDeck, and take care to ensure that it is securely anchored and stable before using it to board or access your boat.
Overall, the AquaDeck is a versatile and practical accessory for boaters who want to protect their boats and enhance their boating experience. Whether you're docking, swimming, sunbathing, or enjoying water sports, the AquaDeck can help you do it safely and comfortably.
