Swim 350, a retractable gangway designed for mounting on small and large yachts

Compass Marine builds boat gangways and accessories in general, characterised by custom design using state-of-the-art materials and treatments, and boat flooring materials under the registered trademark EASY TEAK. The use of Easy Teak polymer for the construction of decking represents an innovation in economic and ecological terms.

New products include:

  • the Swim 350, a retractable gangway designed for installation on large yachts;
  • the Wave series multifunctional retractable staircase made of aluminium and stainless steel, which comes in 3 lengths, progressively with 4-5-6 steps.

Flight gangways Flight 100-120 are hydraulic 2-section sliding gangways specially designed for small to medium-sized boats. For a reasonable outlay, you will have a great quality product for the comfort of your boat; installation is simple thanks to the provision of a complete kit.

The Flight gangways have been designed to support any tender complete with engine, along with the dock approach function to get on and off the boat. The convenient 2-arm handrail, which is available as an optional extra, opens and closes automatically when the sliding platform is moved, and stows automatically in a sort of container at the side of the gangway.

The supporting structure is made of anodised aluminium and AISI 316 stainless steel, the wooden deck is made of non-slip Teak slats. The vital points of the mechanics are secured by factory-made AISI 316 stainless steel pins and screws. The aluminium handrail rope stops make it easy to replace or retension the rope.

The pistons are extremely robust, made entirely of AISI 316 stainless steel. The fittings to the pipes are stainless steel. An advantage of the Flight gangways is that they are entirely removable by screws: this makes it easier to service and replace parts that we guarantee as individual spare parts.
