Custom Inflatable Gangway for Yachts, Boats & Docks
Xsea-Tech manufactures custom inflatable gangways for yacht brands, boat accessories companies, marine distributors, water-sports businesses, and private-label OEM projects.
Our inflatable gangways provide a portable boarding solution for access between a yacht, boat, dock, swim platform, floating platform, or shore-side connection point. Built around a high-pressure drop-stitch structure, the gangway is designed to create a firm and stable walking surface when correctly inflated, positioned, and secured for its intended use.
Unlike a traditional fixed yacht passerelle or a heavy rigid gangway, an inflatable gangway can be deflated, rolled, packed into a carry bag, and stored in a compact space. This makes it suitable for boat owners, marine-equipment brands, charter operators, yacht-accessory distributors, and businesses looking for a portable marine-access product.
Xsea-Tech supports custom gangway development with options for length, width, thickness, surface finish, EVA anti-slip deck, logo, graphics, handles, D-rings, attachment layout, carry bag, packaging, and selected accessories.
Common custom lengths include 200 cm and 230 cm. Other dimensions can be evaluated according to your vessel type, boarding arrangement, target user, and project requirements.
Designed for Yacht and Boat Boarding Access
A custom inflatable gangway can be used as a temporary boarding surface between compatible marine structures.
Typical applications include:
Yacht-to-dock boarding
Boat-to-dock access
Sailboat boarding
Catamaran boarding
Tender-boat access
Swim-platform connection
Floating dock access
Floating-platform connection
Water-sports center access
Beach-club and resort marine activities
Private-label marine accessory programs
The final gangway design should be selected according to the distance between access points, boarding-height difference, vessel type, expected user load, water movement, fixing method, surface requirement, and intended operating conditions.
High-Pressure Drop Stitch Construction
Our inflatable gangways use a high-pressure drop-stitch core to create a flatter and more rigid walking surface than a conventional low-pressure inflatable product.
Drop-stitch construction consists of upper and lower coated fabric layers connected by thousands of internal polyester threads. When inflated to the specified working pressure, the internal threads help maintain the shape of the gangway and support a more stable surface for temporary boarding use.
The complete gangway construction can be developed according to your requested size, target market, application, price level, and brand requirements.

Final rigidity and performance depend on the complete design, including gangway length, width, thickness, drop-stitch specification, material construction, side-edge reinforcement, inflation pressure, attachment method, user load, and operating conditions.
Common Custom Gangway Sizes
Xsea-Tech can manufacture inflatable gangways according to your requested dimensions and application requirements.
The following lengths are common reference options for customer projects:
A 200 cm or 230 cm gangway may be suitable for many yacht and boat boarding projects, but the correct length should be confirmed based on the actual boarding distance and height difference between the boat, dock, floating platform, or shore connection point.
EVA Anti-Slip Deck Options
The upper surface of the gangway can be designed with an EVA anti-slip deck pad to improve grip and provide a more comfortable walking surface.
EVA deck pads can also be used as a strong visual branding element for private-label marine products.
EVA Customization Options
Full EVA anti-slip deck
Partial EVA walking area
Custom EVA color
Diamond-groove texture
Brushed EVA texture
Custom pattern design
Laser-cut logo
Multi-color EVA layout
Custom deck-pad shape
Brand graphics and visual identity
The recommended EVA layout should consider the intended walking area, attachment positions, drainage needs, cleaning requirements, and overall product appearance.
Custom Handles, D-Rings and Attachment Layout
A gangway must be positioned and secured correctly before use. For this reason, the handle, D-ring, strap, and connection-point layout should be considered during product development.
Xsea-Tech can discuss accessory placement according to the intended connection between the gangway and the boat, yacht, dock, swim platform, or floating platform.
Available Accessory Options
Soft carrying handles
Reinforced handles
Stainless steel D-rings
PVC D-rings
Attachment straps
Adjustable fixing straps
Buckles
Connection loops
Rope attachment points
Anchor points
Side grab handles
Safety-line attachment positions
Repair kit
Carry bag
The final attachment method should be confirmed according to the structure of the yacht, boat, dock, or platform. Customers should verify that all fixing points are compatible, correctly secured, and appropriate for the intended load and use environment.

Safety and Use Notes
This product is intended as a portable and temporary boarding solution between compatible yachts, boats, docks, swim platforms, floating platforms, or similar marine structures.
Before use, the operator should confirm that the gangway is:
Inflated to the specified pressure for the final product
Properly positioned on stable contact points
Securely attached using suitable fixing points and straps
Used within the confirmed recommended load and operating conditions
Checked for damage, air loss, loose accessories, or unsafe placement
Used with consideration for water movement, weather, boarding height, and user condition
A portable inflatable gangway is not a substitute for an engineered fixed marina gangway, a public-accessibility ramp, or a wheelchair-access structure. Final dimensions, working pressure, recommended load, attachment method, and operating conditions must be confirmed for each product configuration and intended application.
