Yachtbeach — German-engineered modular platforms with the proprietary 12-point connection
Yachtbeach (Point of Sports GmbH, Bavaria, Germany) is the modular standardised player in the superyacht inflatable platform segment. Their range covers everything an owner needs to build a floating beach club: rectangular platforms from 2.05 m to 8.20 m, Luxury & Superior pools with jellyfish-safe mesh nets, Magic Yachtslides for railing heights from 270 cm up to 540 cm, jet ski & foil docks, Toy Docks, Hex-Platforms (Party / Relax / Sport Zones), Yachtsteps, Pavilions, and a full furniture set (sunbeds, sofas, chairs, loungers).
The product that made Yachtbeach the dominant standardised brand is the proprietary 12-point handle connection system. Every Yachtbeach module — platforms, pools, docks, slides, sunbeds, even cup holders — uses the same metal-free handle pattern, which means owners can build linear (L-shape), T-shape, or fully closed O-shape configurations without custom hardware, then re-configure them next charter week. Construction is 20 cm reinforced drop-stitch with an artificial-leather teak finish (premium teak or pearl white) and 316L stainless D-rings.
Yachtbeach's positioning is precise: premium standardised, off-the-shelf to short lead-time. Where Searaft and NautiBuoy build to a yacht's CAD drawings (semi-custom, 8–16 weeks), and where FunAir handles fully bespoke 50 m+ programmes (16–24+ weeks), Yachtbeach ships proven sizes — the most-popular Platform 4.10 Premium Teak, for example, is 8.4 m² and 42 kg — typically in 2–6 weeks. That makes Yachtbeach the right call for charter fleets, refit windows, and any owner who wants a complete beach-club setup without a full custom programme. Mercer Yachting supplies and delivers the full Yachtbeach range across the Mediterranean.

Why Yachtbeach? Six Reasons Owners Pick Modular over Custom
Yachtbeach sits in the modular standardised premium niche. They're the right call when speed-to-water, total flexibility, and a complete catalogue beat a fully bespoke yacht-fit build.
Patented 12-point connection
Every Yachtbeach module shares the same metal-free handle pattern. Build linear, L-shape, T-shape or fully closed O-shape configurations without custom hardware — and reconfigure them between charter weeks.
Standardised platform sizes
2.05, 3.08, 4.10, 6.16, 8.20 m — same 205 cm width across the range, same 20 cm thickness, same Premium Teak or Pearl White finishes. Predictable specs for charter brokers and yacht managers.
Complete beach-club catalogue
40+ SKUs covering platforms, Luxury & Superior pools, Magic Yachtslides (4 sizes), jet ski docks, Toy Docks, Hex-Platforms, Pavilions, Yachtsteps, sofas, sunbeds, chairs and accessories — all from one supplier.
Faster lead times than bespoke
Yachtbeach ships proven sizes. Typical turnaround is 2–6 weeks for in-stock items vs 8–24+ weeks for fully bespoke yacht-fit builds. Right brand for refit windows, late-season charter additions, and rapid replacements.
Premium teak finish
Artificial-leather teak surface (also Pearl White) is non-slip, UV-resistant, stays cool underfoot, and visually matches modern yacht deck styling. 316L stainless D-rings, 4-bag ballast on most platforms.
Mercer Mediterranean delivery
Mercer Yachting (with Ritz Marine as parent group) sources direct from Yachtbeach in Bavaria and delivers to Malta, Antibes, Palma, Genoa, Athens, Split — and any nominated Med port. Crew commissioning support included on first deployment.

Yachtbeach in the Yacht Inflatable Platform Market
Yachtbeach (Point of Sports GmbH, Bavaria) holds the standardised premium niche in the superyacht inflatable platform segment. Where Searaft (Netherlands) and NautiBuoy (Nijmegen, NL) build to a yacht's CAD drawings on 8–16-week semi-custom programmes, and where FunAir (Austin, TX) handles fully bespoke 50 m+ yacht-fit deliveries on 16–24+ week timelines, Yachtbeach engineers a complete catalogue of proven sizes — Platform 2.05 through Platform 8.20, four Magic Yachtslide railing heights, two pool families (Luxury and Superior), a Hex-Platform programme — and ships them in 2–6 weeks. That's the structural reason charter fleets, refit programmes, and any owner pre-season ordering pick Yachtbeach as their first call.
The product engineering rests on one consistent material spec and a single proprietary connection system. The 12-point handle connection (metal-free, soft connectors) lets every module — platform, pool, slide, dock, sunbed, even a stool — interlock without bespoke hardware. 20 cm reinforced drop-stitch construction with artificial-leather teak (or Pearl White) finish, 316L stainless D-rings, and 4-bag ballast on most platforms is the same across the range. Predictable specs, predictable performance, predictable replacement pricing — exactly what yacht managers and charter brokers need when they specify equipment three months before the season.
Mercer Yachting (a division of Ritz Marine Limited) sources direct from Yachtbeach and delivers across the Mediterranean — Malta, Antibes, Palma de Mallorca, Genoa, Athens, Split, and any nominated yacht-yard or marina. Crew commissioning support on first deployment is included; replacement parts for the 12-point connection system, ballast bags, electric pumps, and ladders are held in regional stock. For a fully bespoke yacht-fit build (CAD-matched cut-outs, integrated swim ladders, custom branding on a non-standard footprint), see the dedicated Searaft and brand-comparison pages.
Delivery & Commissioning
We deliver to Malta and key Mediterranean ports including Antibes, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona, Genoa, Athens, and Split. Worldwide delivery available by air and sea freight to any nominated port, agent, or alongside where permitted. All units arrive with manufacturer documentation, warranty cards, and setup instructions for crew.
Yachtbeach — Frequently Asked Questions
What size Yachtbeach platform do I need for my yacht?
The most-requested size is the Platform 4.10 Premium Teak (4.10 × 2.05 m, 8.4 m², 42 kg) — it suits 25–45 m yachts and is light enough for two crew to deploy without a davit. For 40 m+ yachts, the Platform 8.20 (8.20 × 2.05 m, 16.8 m², 78 kg) is the flagship. Smaller 2.05 m and 3.08 m units are popular as connector pieces, side wings, or for sailing yachts. Every size is 205 cm wide and 20 cm thick — the only variable is length.
How does the Yachtbeach 12-point connection system work?
Every Yachtbeach module — platform, pool, slide, dock, sunbed, even the cup holder — has the same metal-free handle pattern around its perimeter. You thread a soft connector through matching handles on adjacent modules. No tools, no metal hardware, and the connections can be re-arranged in minutes. That's how owners build linear (L-shape), T-shape, or fully enclosed O-shape configurations and re-configure them between charter weeks. The proprietary connection is what makes Yachtbeach the dominant standardised brand in the segment.
How does the Luxury Pool's jellyfish net work?
The Luxury Pool 4.10 (4.1 × 4.1 × 0.2 m drop-stitch) and Luxury Pool 6.20 use a deep weighted fine-mesh net hanging below the inflatable frame. The net creates a physical barrier against jellyfish, sea lice, and floating debris while allowing fresh seawater to circulate freely. The 20 cm drop-stitch frame is rigid enough to walk on, sit on, or place lounge furniture on. Pool Superior 6.16 / 8.20 use the same construction with extra-wide walkways for dining or lounging on the frame itself.
Which Magic Yachtslide size fits my yacht?
Yachtbeach manufactures Magic Yachtslides in six railing-height ranges (270–350, 380–460, 460–540, 540–620, 620–700, 700–780 cm). Through Mercer / Ritz Marine we stock the four most-specified sizes — typically referenced by slide length: 4.6 m, 5.2 m, 6.2 m (the most popular for 30–50 m yachts, fits 460–540 cm rails), and 7.2 m. The Mini Yachtslide handles the lowest freeboards. All slides connect directly to the railing or to a Yachtbeach Platform, use multi-chamber inflation for rigidity, and pack down for tender-garage storage. Tell us the railing height to waterline and we'll spec the right size.
What's the difference between Hex-Platform Party, Relax and Sport Zones?
All three Hex-Platforms share the same 250 × 290 cm hexagonal structure — 26 kg, 12 connector handles, 20 cm drop-stitch, premium teak surface. They differ only in branding and configuration: Party Zone is positioned for cocktail events and entertaining, Relax Zone for lounging and sunbathing, Sport Zone as a water-sports staging hub. Buy whichever name fits your charter brochure — the platform is the same. To build a larger central deck, cluster multiple Hex modules side by side using the 12-point connection system; the hexagonal geometry is what enables radial layouts (pools, slides, jet ski docks, lounges all branching from a central hub).
What lead time should I expect from Yachtbeach via Mercer?
For in-stock standard items (Platform 4.10 Premium Teak, common pool sizes, Magic Yachtslide 6.2, Jet Ski Dock Double, Foil Dock 2.05): typically 2–6 weeks from order to Mediterranean port. Less-common configurations or full beach-club packages (multiple platforms + pool + slide + furniture) can run 6–10 weeks depending on Yachtbeach's Bavarian production calendar and your specified delivery window. We confirm exact dates at quote stage. For owners whose programme requires a fully bespoke CAD-matched yacht-fit build, Searaft (Netherlands) and FunAir (USA) sit on adjacent product pages — Yachtbeach itself does not handle that level of custom work; the brand's core advantage is standardised, modular, and short lead-time.
