DRY DOCKING – SeaPen

DRY DOCKING – SeaPen

SeaPen – the ultimate dry docking system

We have a Riviera M370 and had a SeaPen installed six months ago. Besides the obvious technical benefits of the SeaPen, such as safety, stability of the boat, and less anti-fouling and maintenance of the boat, there are many more important reasons to have a SeaPen.

Prior to having the SeaPen, taking the boat out for the day or week was a challenge due to the expectations my husband had of me! Instead of having a relaxing day, it started with frustrations over doing the ropes and fenders, both of which I wasn’t that good at… apparently. Then after a lovely day out on the boat, we came home to more ropes and fenders and more frustrations.

 

The SeaPen has been my/our saviour, from a boating relationship perspective as well as from the sheer ease of leaving the pontoon and returning to the pontoon in a very safe manner. I am no longer required to manage ropes and/or fenders. I can now step onto the boat and prepare some refreshments, which make for a wonderful and relaxed start to our boating experience. On our return home, the same applies as I no longer need to hang off the side of the boat waiting to jump off to secure the boat with fenders and ropes.

In addition, our SeaPen has a walkway around the boat which makes it so easy to wash the entire boat and for general maintenance. There is now no need to turn the boat around to wash both sides. I love the Riv but I love the SeaPen more!

WHY BUY A SEAPEN? – SeaPen is the only dry-docking solution that keeps your boat free from barnacles without lifting it out of the water. Dry dock at water level. Never antifoul again. Better performance. Easier to park your boat. Save on boat maintenance. Better resale value.

GLIDE IN, GLIDE OUT – With a touch of a single button, the SeaPen rear gate drops open to let your ship off and onto the water. To dock, simply drive into the SeaPen, activate the gate, and the pump will automatically take care of the rest.

GO AHEAD, STEP ON IT – Yes, you can step on it without a problem. The SeaPen is built sturdy and strong. The high-density polyethylene frame material allows for 360-degree walkable access. An aluminium walkway is also available as an accessory.

YES, IT IS REALLY DRY – The combination of quality marine-grade materials and breakthrough technology to maximize airflow, allow water to be easily pumped away from your boat, leaving your hull dry in no time.

GO WHERE TRADITIONAL LIFTS CAN’T – You can take it with you, install it anywhere, and keep your scenic view. The many benefits and the adaptability SeaPen offers have marinas and apartment associations moving to it as the perfect alternative to the traditional lifts.
