Bespoke · Passerelle

Teak & LED gangway

A lacquered passerelle with a teak walkway and integrated LED lighting — the gangway that is a guest’s first and last contact with the yacht, and a piece that is on show every time the boat is boarded. The structure is finished in lacquer, the walking surface laid in teak, and lighting built into the passerelle itself, shown here in service at night.

A passerelle carries competing demands. It has to be light and stiff enough to deploy and support guests, safe and sure underfoot in the wet and the dark, and finished to the standard of the yacht it serves. The teak walkway answers the grip and the warmth; the integrated LED lighting answers the safety, marking the walking line at night without add-on fittings; and the lacquered structure ties it to the vessel’s own finish. Each of those has to be resolved together, not bolted on afterwards.

Workshop-built as a complete unit, the finished passerelle is practical marine engineering executed as a bespoke fitting — the teak walkway and clean lighting turning a functional bridge to the quay into part of the arrival.

The correct intervention starts with the correct diagnosis.

Send us photographs, the vessel length, approximate deck area, location and known history of the deck. We will tell you whether the next step should be a remote review, an on-board survey or a detailed quotation.
