The late afternoon sun softens over the Mediterranean. The bay grows quiet as the day boats leave. The water turns into a mirror, reflecting the warming sky. This is the moment to move closer to the sea. You can expand your aft deck to capture the best of the golden hour. A floating platform gives you a proper place to be on the water, right beside the yacht. Arranged with dock loungers, this extended space becomes a secluded area for reading, talking or simply watching the light change.
Setting up a lounge space at water level requires the right foundations. The Premium Teak Platform 4.10 m offers a flat, stable base. It measures 410 by 205 cm, which provides ample room for floating furniture and guests. The top features a teak-look surface. It is a teak look only, not real wood. It needs no oiling or sanding to maintain its appearance.
Setting up dock loungers at water level
On this deck, you can position the Relax Corner. This curved module measures 160 by 65 cm. It creates a welcoming seating area at the edge of the platform. For solitary comfort, the Single Luxe Daybed measures 160 by 80 cm. It gives you a dedicated place to stretch out. These dock loungers are made from durable 0.9 mm PVC. When inflated to the pressure stated in the product instructions, they become firm and supportive. The result is a comfortable seat just above the waterline.
Before the evening settles, setting up the space follows a simple routine. Unfold the platform on a clean surface free of sharp objects. Ensure the valve is closed for inflation. Connect the pump and watch the drop-stitch fabric take shape. Two layers of fabric are joined by a dense array of internal threads. This internal structure is what makes an inflatable platform feel stable underfoot. Once inflated, the threads hold both surfaces parallel. The product becomes flat and firm. Connecting multiple platforms is simple with the AirLink Tube. It joins units side by side into a single, continuous deck.
For getting out of the water after a late swim, you can attach the AquaStair ladder set. It has four steps and reaches 95 cm below the waterline. This makes climbing back onto the platform much easier. You can step straight from the water onto the teak-look deck. Then, you can take your place on the floating furniture. The water ripples gently against the side of the platform.
Securing water toys as the day ends
The golden hour is also the time to gather your equipment. A busy afternoon of riding leaves toys scattered. An extended aft deck provides a structured place to moor them for the night. You can attach the Double Toy Dock (3.10 + 4.10 m), made up of two modules measuring 410 by 205 cm and 308 by 155 cm. It holds up to two jet skis clear of the hull. The divided arms keep the machines apart. For a smaller collection, the C-Dock measures 200 by 150 cm. It is made for a single jet ski, Seabob or e-foil board.
Gathering everything onto one floating perimeter brings order to the anchorage. Your crew can wash down the toys while you relax. Whatever the hour, only use these floating structures in calm, sheltered water. The late afternoon often brings the stillest conditions of the day. It is the perfect time to enjoy your sunbed. Before anyone steps onto the extended deck, you must ensure engines and thrusters are off. Always supervise swimmers and children around the platform.
Tailor-made sizes and packing away
If you need a specific size to match your transom, tailor-made dimensions are available on request. Every custom project receives an individual quote covering the exact specification. When it is time to pack up, the breakdown is straightforward. You rinse the loungers and platforms thoroughly with fresh water. You must let them air-dry completely before you pack them away. Storing them dry prevents moisture build-up in your lockers. They fold down to a manageable size for your crew to stow.
