WELDED ALUMINUM GANGWAYS Formed and welded aluminum gangplanks painted to match the yacht. Simple effective boarding with your choice of tread surface. Folding and two-section options available for easier stowage of longer gangways. Built to your required length - 4 to 14 feet (1.2 to 4.3m) Anodized aluminum construction White, grey or black non-skid, Marinedeck cork, or teak-strip walking surface options Two-section & folding options Mount to standard MarQuipt hullside brackets or pivoting 'T' mount through caprail Various handrail and wheel options Available trapeeze harness bar for raising dock end Wheel-chair accommodation options PRODUCT OPTIONS Length and width Built to suit from 4 to 14 feet (1.2 to 4.3m) long, With standard nominal mounting widths of 19" or 24" wide (48 or 61cm), providing a 16" or 21" (40 or 53cm) walkway width, measureing 20-1/2" or 25-1/2" (52 or 65cm) wide overall. Mounting system May attach to the vessel using several methods. Standard is a 'T' and socket style mount which allows for both vertical and horizontal rotation at the boat end of the gangway, using fixed wheels at the dock end. Alternately, the same hullside brackets as our other boarding equipement can be used, constraining the boat-end of the gangway to vertical movement only - in which case caster-wheels are used on the dock end to allow sideways movement. Folding or Take-apart sections for more compact handling and stowage Allows for more compact handling and stowage of one half-length to two half-length and half-weight pieces. High-low wheel car at dock end Helps avoid interference with the edge of the dock at low tide by raising the dock end of the gangway.
