Small boat dock for lightweight boats and jet skis
Alutrack's small boat dock is suitable for small and lightweight boats and jet skis. With the help of the aluminium dock, pulling the boat or jet ski ashore is effortless. You can have our docks and accessories delivered to anywhere in Europe and elsewhere. We would love to tell you more, so get in touch and get ready for the boating season with our top-grade tools!
Small boat dock
New for 2022 is the Alutrack small boat dock designed for small and/or lightweight boats and jet skis.
The small boat dock suits boats or jet skis with a weight of no more than 400kg. The carriage is pulled onto the dock by a WARN drill winch with a traction strength of 337kg. A small boat dock can be 11.75 metres (5 * 2.35m) in length at most.
In principle, the small boat dock functions the same as Alutrack's large boat dock - the boat or jet ski is driven onto the carriage and then the carriage is drawn ashore along the rails.
The electric winch is used with a standard drill machine with a torque of at least 4Nm. Drill machine is not included.
The winch is lightweight and portable, and can be easily detached from its fastenings and used for other tasks.
Ease of use
The large dock is suitable in its basic form for a boat with a maximum total weight of 1600 kg. With additional accessories, the dock's load capacity can be increased to approximately 3000 kg. The large, durable boat dock is made of aluminum, which is lightweight, malleable, strong and resistant to corrosion.
Alutrack uses an aluminum alloy in its docks, which is called marine aluminum, so every boat dock we manufacture is also saltwater resistant.
An aluminum boat dock is very durable because when in contact with oxygen, aluminum produces an oxide layer on its surface, which protects it against moisture, salt, and other external factors. Both the underwater part of the boat dock and the part located on land therefore maintain their operational reliability in all conditions.
The length of the dock is determined by the intended use and the shore. When determining the length, it should be taken into account whether the dock is only used to remove the boat from the water or whether it is advisable to use the dock also for winter storage, in which case it is advisable to pull the boat further from the waterline.
The length of an aluminum boat dock does not affect its durability. The dock is always tailored to the customer's needs and with the right choices, a long-lasting and durable boat dock is obtained. The operating principle of the Alutrack boat dock is that the sled, on which the boat is driven, is lowered so far that the boat can float on the sled before the winch is started. Therefore, the larger the boat, the deeper the total length of the dock must be dimensioned for water.
Whether you are purchasing a saltwater-resistant boat dock or a freshwater dock, the docks we manufacture are long-lasting and are always manufactured to the customer's needs in the right length and size. The aluminum structure is both strong and lightweight, which makes it possible to install the dock yourself, even for large boats.
