Boarding comfort

Let’s face it, to really be able to get on and off your boat to the pontoon or quay, nothing is more convenient than an electro-hydraulic gangway. No more awkward manhandling a heavy plank into position: all it takes is a push of a button. And being telescopic, it stows away nicely when you’re out of your berth.

Electro-hydraulic gangways come in a wide range of sizes and shapes. They can be operated through a hand held controller or a fixed, digital panel. You can have them with stanchions, too, either automatic or manual. The gangways themselves are made of stainless steel and teak, or of lighter, stronger carbon fiber.

At Boatcare, we have handled all sorts of installations, in some cases including the reinforcement, redesign and rebuilding of the stern to accommodate the new gangway.
