Seahorse Fixed Dock Single Kayak Launch

The Seahorse Docking Fixed Dock Single Kayak Launch offers a secure and efficient solution for launching and stowing kayaks and small watercraft without needing to enter the water. This system is designed to securely store your small craft above the water, saving valuable dock space, and can be easily mounted to a fixed dock or seawall, occupying no more space than the size of the craft itself.

Engineered for stability, the Seahorse Launch and Stow has a 450-pound rating, ensuring a stable platform for boarding. The mount features a built-in slide that allows the I-beam ladder and float to move with the tides. The system includes two ladders: the main ladder, which slides up and down with the float, and a secondary ladder mounted on the float for easy exit from the water. The cradle securely holds your craft on its side, with straps to keep it in place.
