The bay is completely still at first light. The summer crowds have moved on, leaving only the quiet of a sheltered anchorage and the crisp air of late October. Down at the stern, a Premium Teak Platform 2.05 m rests quietly on the surface, extending the deck outward. This is the essence of a water level living yacht platform, giving you a proper place to be on the water right beside the yacht. You can step down with a warm cup in hand, feeling the firm support of the drop-stitch fabric underfoot. Measuring a compact 205 by 205 centimetres, it fits neatly against smaller transoms while offering ample room to start the day.
The low morning sun catches the teak-look surface. It brings a visual warmth to the water, although it is a teak look only and needs no oiling or sanding. A Relax Corner sits at the edge, offering a soft place to lean back and watch the mist lift off the bay. There are no engines running nearby and no waves to disturb the peace. The sea is completely flat, just as the instructions require for safe use, and you must always supervise anyone who decides to swim.
A floating deck for quiet mornings
When you anchor in an isolated cove, the connection to the sea changes completely. Sitting high up on the flybridge offers a beautiful view, but an inflatable water terrace brings you close enough to touch the water. You hear the gentle lap of small ripples against the reinforced PVC edges. It is an ideal setting for stern platform relaxation before the rest of the guests wake up, allowing you to enjoy the absolute quiet of the anchorage without interruption.
You might stretch out in the cool morning air, or simply watch the sunlight hit the horizon. The platform is highly stable because the drop-stitch construction uses a dense array of internal threads to hold both surfaces parallel. When inflated to the pressure stated in the product instructions, it becomes flat and firm. It feels less like a temporary addition and more like a solid extension of the yacht itself.
Creating an autumn yacht anchorage lounge
As the morning warms up, the space transitions into a comfortable autumn yacht anchorage lounge. You can bring a book down to the water line or sit together and plan the day ahead. A Single Luxe Daybed provides ample personal space for reading or simply watching the water. Browsing the air sofas and chairs collection reveals many ways to furnish this low-level deck. Floating products like these are designed for the marine environment, built to withstand the elements while looking elegant next to your hull.
They arrive directly at your marina, berth or door, with worldwide and fully insured shipping handling the logistics. For unique transom shapes, equipment can be tailor-made on request, adapting the size, surface or configuration to the yacht, with an individual quote for each project. Keep in mind that while standard items are eligible for returns within 14 days of delivery if unused and in original packaging, tailor-made items are excluded. If the wind begins to build up or the water loses its calm shelter, you simply bring the platform back aboard. The accessories are just as manageable. The compact air pump inflates and deflates the loungers quickly, and everything packs away neatly.
Preparing your water terrace for winter
Autumn marks the end of the cruising calendar for many boats in the Mediterranean, bringing the final voyages of the year to a close. When it is time to prepare the yacht for winter, your floating equipment needs just a few basic steps of care and storage. You must rinse it thoroughly with fresh water to remove any salt residue. Then, leave it out on a clean deck to air-dry completely.
Moisture trapped inside a folded platform can cause issues during storage, so make sure the product is completely dry before you deflate, fold and pack it. Once packed, store inflatables and covers dry and out of prolonged direct sunlight. A detailed care guide is included with every order, and all products are covered by a two-year warranty from delivery. If you follow these simple maintenance steps at the end of the season, your platform will unroll next spring exactly the way you left it.
