Product Description
If you have a larger, heavier boat and/or engine configuration, once you have driven your boat onto your dock, you may still have a few inches of transom touching the water. This is quite normal and you can see many boats on many different brands of dock in many marinas all round the country that are like that. It’s OK to leave it like that – the rest of your hull, your RIB tubes, your engine mounts and your lift motors are all out of the water and all you have to do is to occasionally scrub off the bottom of your transom.
In this situation, if you would like to get your transom completely clear of the water, you will need our unique Air Support System – which is a tank, or series of tanks, fixed underneath the back end of your dock into which air is pumped in order to raise your boat up that last few inches.
You can use a footpump (not too bad for a single tank, and the exercise is good for you), a 12v pump working off your boat’s battery or a 240v pump if you have mains power available at your berth.
You simply drive onto your dock, connect the pump to the air pipes and pump away for a few minutes. To get off your dock again, you just open the air taps, wait until the air has stopped coming out (again, just a few minutes) and then you’re ready to go.
