Qué cubre este vídeo
The Launch Pad swim platform by Perfusion Marine provides a bolt-on, high-density plastic deck designed specifically for the transom of MacGregor 26X and M sailboats.0:07 The unit weighs 50 pounds, supports up to 350 pounds, and mounts in approximately 25 minutes.0:34 Installation requires adding two side-stabilizing blocks to the backing plate to prevent lateral movement, which the manufacturer now includes as a standard feature.8:17 When the outboard motor is tilted up, the platform rises with it, acting as a barrier to the cockpit.5:31 The platform serves as a staging area for gear, a fillet station, a boarding step for kayaks or paddleboards, and a stable surface for water-level activities.3:25 At speeds above 10 mph, the platform clears the water surface, creating no significant drag.11:35 While the platform is stable when the motor is down, it lacks support when the motor is tilted up.6:35 Adding two high-density plastic blocks to the backing plate eliminates side-to-side instability.8:23
