OverviewSeadrop is a hydraulic sliding (linear) stern platform solution for catamarans and yachts requiring linear movement. It enables launching and hauling tenders and jetskis and functionally extends the aft area while ensuring a clean hull installation.
Key features- Linear movement of the stern platform for smooth, controlled operation and a compact hull installation.
- Constructed in 316 stainless steel; available in multiple models with different sizes and options.
- Hydraulic operation suitable for launching/hauling tenders and jetskis, integration of bathing ladders, and general aft-area use.
- Adjustable tilt to match stern geometry; adaptable to small and large yachts as well as catamarans.
- Pair of hydraulic pinlocks supplied as standard for additional safety while underway.
- Standard lifting capacities available up to 1,500 kg.
Customisations and options- Removable or fixed chocks for tender support.
- Different platform sizes and lifting capacities on request.
- Custom-made platform frame to suit hull geometry.
- Optional stanchions/fairleads for handrails and fittings.
- Integrated mechanical bathing ladder available.
