The Owner's Insights on the Aquadeck Inflatable V Dock
Three metres by two, 23kg, and it's up in three minutes with the 240V pump that comes in your box. This is the small end of the AquaDeck range and the easiest one for you to handle on your own.
The V cut takes the nose of your boat or your tender so it's held rather than drifting, and the rubber bumpers mean your hull isn't wearing the docking every time.
You choose your top above. Grey is 23kg, teak-look is 24kg and looks the part off the back of a nicer boat.
Why You'll Love the Aquadeck Inflatable V Dock

- Three-minute inflation. The 240V electric pump is included.
- 1000D drop-stitch PVC, 0.9mm. Walk on it like a floor, not a lilo.
- Rubber bumpers. Your hull doesn't wear the docking.
- Mooring points on the sides and underneath. Tie off however you need to.
- Teak or grey top. Pick the look that suits your boat.

What a V dock is for
The V takes the nose of your boat or your tender and holds it, so it isn't swinging on a rope and nudging whatever it's tied to. You get a flat deck to step onto instead of climbing over your side, and the rubber bumpers take the contact instead of your gelcoat. If your boat is smaller, or you have a tender that's forever knocking about, that's the whole job. If you want to walk right around a bigger hull, the U pontoon is the shape for it.
Twenty-three kilos is the number that matters
This is the AquaDeck you can put in and out of the water on your own, without waiting for a hand. At 3m x 2m and 23kg it's a one-person carry down to your jetty, and a one-person job to roll it up and put it away. The bigger pontoons in the range are better platforms and worse to handle: the Large Y pontoon is 43.5kg packed and you'll want a hand with it. If your dock has to come out every weekend, the light one gets used and the heavy one stays in your shed.
Three minutes with the pump that comes with it
AquaDeck include a 240V electric pump, so if you have power at your jetty or a small inverter on your boat it's up in three minutes. That matters more than it sounds. A dock that takes twenty minutes with a hand pump gets set up once a season. One that takes three minutes gets used every trip. Inflate yours to between 1.5 and 2.0 PSI and it's firm enough to walk across without thinking about it.
Teak or grey?
It's a look, not a function. The teak-look top is a printed finish that reads like timber decking, and it suits a nicer runabout or your boat if it has timber trim. Grey is plainer and hides marks better, which matters if yours lives on a working tender or gets dragged up a ramp. Teak is one kilo heavier and a bit dearer. Neither changes how yours floats or how long it lasts.
Rinse it and dry it, that's the whole maintenance list
Salt is what kills inflatables, and it does it slowly. The crystals sit in the fabric and grind at it every time the dock is rolled, so a hose-down before yours goes in the bag is worth more than anything else you can do. The other one is heat: air expands, so a dock left inflated in full sun on a hot day can push well past 2 PSI on its own. Let a bit out, put yours away dry, and it will still be good in ten years.

Not Sure Which Inflatable Dock Suits You?
The V dock suits you if you want a light, quick dock for a small boat or a tender that one person can handle on their own. It's the wrong pick if you have a bow rider you want to nose into, where the Y pontoon is cut for it, or if you want to walk around a bigger hull, where the U pontoon is the right shape.
