The folding side terraces on both sides of your boat allow you to extend your offshore life onto a whole new level.

Make sure there are no people or objects near or on the side terraces when you lower or lift them. Always lower the side terrace to the lowest locking position.

Lift the side terraces before you move the boat.

Risk of boat tipping or side terrace breaking down, risk of people or property falling into the water.

Always remember the balance of the boat and the durability of the side terrace.

Do not allow too many people to stay on the lowered side terrace.

Do not place too much load on the lowered side terrace.

Do not exceed the maximum permitted load on the side terraces. Check the technical specification for the maximum permitted load.

You can lower and raise each side terrace separately from the side terrace control panel.

  • Mechanical latches keep the folding side terraces locked in the upright position when you drive.

  • When you lower the side terrace to the lowest locking position, the securing wire is straight and tight to show the proper position, and serves as a safety mechanism, as well. This ensures the terrace does not give way under your foot and cause you or your guests to fall into the water.
