The presence of Henshaw Inflatables’ at this year’s METS reflects the company’s recent increase in sales to the superyacht sector. Apart from the Easystow Inflatable Fenders which are protecting the sides of some of the largest luxury Super Yachts afloat, Henshaw are specialists in the supply of special fendering systems for Swim Platforms and Garage Doors. Superyacht accessories such as Sea Pools and inflatable Jet Ski platforms, which will be on show at this year’s METS are also becoming popular with both luxury motor yacht and sailing yacht owners.

Some examples of Henshaw products for Superyachts

The ideal accessory for any super yacht, the Sea Pool can be quickly inflated and anchored or attached to the stern of the vessel, providing guests and owners with a ‘private pool’ within close proximity of the yacht. The underwater section of the Sea Pool is structured from a very fine 1.5mm built-in mesh, which prevents any unwanted marine life, including jellyfish, from entering the area.

Designed by the world’s leading manufacturer of inflatable tubes for RIBs, the Inflatable Jet Ski Dock enables jet ski owners to store their craft afloat when not in use. This innovative platform saves users both time and energy in lifting out their jet ski at the end of each ride, and means that the jet ski is ready for the user to hop back onboard and ride at a moment’s notice.
