These accessories not only add a practical functionality to your pontoon but also aesthetically can make a pontoon look very sleek and modern. Aqua Pontoons has a range accessories and boat lifts to suit many different requirements along with dry storage option like a scolloped end to allow for a boat or jet ski to be raised up on top of the pontoon this is often referred to as a “Dry Berth Pontoon” and costs very little to option on your new pontoon before its being built.

2: Pontoon Fender by Profender

This fender is the best value for money on the market and we highly recommend it for its ability to minimise damage to your boat when berthed on your pontoon especially those in high traffic areas. Profender’s quality is second to none.

3: Aluminium Light Posts

Available in two different light styles, the first being a ball shape the tends to spread the light evenly over a 360° which can sometimes be annoying for close by rooms or neighbours. The second system is a small vertically mounted fluorescent light which tends to focus the light more within a 180° area and the pole is tilted forward about 30° to focus the light more around the pontoon and your boat. Both these lights are available with a night time sensor for auto on/off.
