Buying Advice For Deck Extender Platforms

When you are managing deck operations, selecting a Jobe Infinity Island isn't just about picking a size from a catalog. It’s about calculating the impact on your vessel's logistics and the safety of your guests.

Here are the primary factors you should consider before adding these extenders to your inventory.

1. The Swim Platform "Shadow"

The most common mistake is ignoring how the island interacts with your existing platform geometry.

Access Paths: If your platform has a central passerelle or deep-mounted swim ladder, a wide island can create a bottleneck. You want the island to be an extension of the beach club, not a barrier that forces guests to climb over gear to reach the water.

Beam Alignment: Match your island width to your platform's workable surface. An island that sits wider than your beam creates a "catch" for tenders or jet skis coming alongside, potentially leading to gelcoat damage or snapped mooring lines.

2. Space at Anchor & Swing Circle

Remember that a 4-meter island acts as a significant sail and a tethered drag.

Windage and Drag: In a cross-breeze, a large island will pull hard on your D-rings and affect how the stern swings. In tight Mediterranean anchorages, this extra length can push your stern closer to neighboring vessels than your anchor watch might appreciate.

The "Vessel Shield" Benefit: On the flip side, a larger island creates a physical perimeter. This can be useful in busy bays to keep public jet skis and local boat traffic at a safer distance from your swimming guests.

3. Sub-Surface Dynamics

Inflatable islands are susceptible to the movement of the water beneath the boat.

The Under-Tuck Risk: In high-current zones or when hit by a heavy wake, an island can "dive" or tuck under the swim platform. To mitigate this, always account for the use of Transom Bumpers. These are essential for keeping the island level with the deck and protecting the inflatable from being crushed against the hull.

4. Lazarette Logistics & Crew Capacity

As someone managing the deck, you know that the "cost" of a toy is often measured in crew minutes and locker volume.

Deployment Muscle: Consider the weight of the unit when wet and slippery. A standard island can be a heavy two-person lift. If you are operating with a smaller crew or frequent turnaround times, a lighter version that utilizes thinner drop-stitch technology may be more efficient for your daily workflow.

Stowage Footprint: Check your hatch clearance and locker depth. Some islands roll much tighter than others. If your lazarette is already fighting for space with fenders, dive tanks, and shore power cables, the pack-down volume is just as important as the inflated dimensions.


Expert Tip: Before finalizing a size, measure your intended tie-off points. Ensure you have clear, reinforced cleats or D-rings that align with the island’s attachment points to avoid unnecessary chafe on your lines.

By shipping primarily from our strategic hub in the Netherlands, we utilize optimized routes that reach major yachting centers in the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and beyond with maximum efficiency. We handle the complex paperwork and customs formalities so that the price you pay covers not just a delivery, but a professional end-to-end logistics service.

Zero-Rated Sales (No UK VAT)

Because our inventory is held in a Dutch bonded warehouse and delivered directly to your vessel outside of the UK, we do not charge UK VAT (20%) on any international orders. The price you see at checkout is the "Net Export" price.

Our goal is to deliver the right gear, to the right place, at the best possible value.

Our Price Match Scheme

Our Global Price Match Guarantee

At Yacht Toys, we don't just match the catalogue price, we match the true landed cost of getting your equipment onto your deck (and that makes a BIG difference)..

We know that in the world of international maritime logistics, a "cheap" price online often hides expensive shipping gaps, surprise customs fees, and administrative headaches.

That’s why our guarantee is built on transparency and total service.

The "Landed & Delivered" Promise

We will match any competitor’s total quote, provided it accounts for the same comprehensive level of service that we provide. Our price match is calculated based on the Total Order Value, which includes:

• The Hardware: The total price of your order.
• Managed Freight Services: Professional packaging, specialised maritime handling, and end-to-end tracking.
• International Shipping: Door-to-port or door-to-marina transit costs to your specific global zone.
• Customs Clearance & Documentation: All export/import filings, "Yacht in Transit" paperwork, and administrative fees required for a legal, hassle-free delivery.

How it Works

If you receive a lower formal quote for the same product delivered to your vessel, simply send it to our logistics team. We won't just look at the product price, we will analyze their shipping and tax breakdown to ensure you are comparing apples to apples.

If their total "Landed Cost" is lower than ours, we will match it.

Why This Matters for You

Shipping 5 paddleboards and 4 towable tubes isn't like shipping a parcel. Many retailers leave the difficult bits, like local tax negotiations in Gibraltar or dockmaster coordination in Antigua, to you.

With YachtToys, the price you see is the price to get it through the marina gates. Our experts handle the bureaucracy so you can focus on the guest experience.

Contact our concierge team with your vessel's location and any competing quote. We’ll verify the logistics and ensure you get the best total value in the industry.

Price Match Terms

• We are not able to price match against a 3rd party marketplace, such as eBay or Amazon.
• The competitor's price must be listed on their website and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer e.g. vouchers, member discounts, promotional discounts, clearance or discontinued items etc.
• The item must be sold by an authorised retailer, not a private seller.
• The price match cannot be combined with other offers or promotions.
• Limit of one price match per customer for each unique item.
• Discount codes cannot be applied retrospectively in relation any price match.

Our Procurement Credits Scheme

Our loyalty ecosystem is engineered specifically for the professional marine sector, offering a flexible financial advantage that standard retail programs cannot match. Whether you are an owner-operator looking to reduce overheads or a professional crew member managing a fleet, our Procurement Credits provide tangible bottom-line value.

How it Works

We value the scale and frequency of professional maritime orders. Our scheme is straightforward and transparent:

Earn as you Equip: Every order placed earns you 1 Procurement Credit for every £1 spent.

Rapid Accumulation: From outfitting a new toy locker to refreshing a guest wetsuit inventory, your credits accumulate automatically on every transaction.

Strategic Redemption Options

We understand that different maritime operations have different financial needs. That is why our Procurement Credits offer dual-utility:

1. Immediate Overhead Reduction (For Owner-Operators)

Procurement Credits can be applied instantly at the checkout to lower your operational costs.

Instant Deduction: Credits can be deducted from any purchase, up to a maximum of 10% of your total basket value.

Conversion Rate: Every 100 Procurement Credits redeemed will deduct £5 from your total bill. This is a "Pro Quality" way to keep your vessel’s maintenance and toy budget under control.

2. Performance Incentives (For Yacht Crews & Captains)

For professional crew, bosuns, and captains responsible for the heavy lifting of vessel procurement, we offer a unique "cash-in" feature.

The Commission Model: Procurement Credits can be cashed in, acting as a professional commission for those managing the vessel's purchasing.

Flexible Payouts: This makes our scheme the preferred choice for yacht management professionals who want their procurement efficiency to be rewarded directly.

The Professional Edge: Whether you choose to lower your invoice or cash in your earnings, the Yacht Toys Procurement Credits scheme ensures that every pound spent on your vessel’s inventory works harder for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the Jobe Manta require a 12V pump for deployment?
A: No. The Manta is designed with a self-inflating core. You simply unroll the mat and open the valves; the internal foam core expands and draws in air automatically. While you can "top it off" with a pump for maximum rigidity, it is intended to function without one, making it an ideal "quick-deploy" toy.

Q: How does the modular zipper system work with other Jobe Infinity products?
A: The Manta is equipped with heavy-duty modular zippers on its edges. These allow you to seamlessly connect it to other products in the Aqua series, including the Jobe Switch, Retreat, or additional Manta mats. This enables you to create a large, custom-configured floating island or a walkway back to the swim platform.

Q: What are the weight and stowage dimensions for lazarette planning?
A: The Manta is significantly lighter than the drop-stitch islands, weighing only 9.2 kg (20.3 lbs). Its deflated package size is 20 x 52 x 75 cm, which is highly efficient for smaller lockers or storage under sunpad seating.

Q: Can the Manta be used as a docking platform for Jet Skis?
A: No. Unlike the Infinity Islands which use 12 PSI drop-stitch technology, the Manta is a 6cm thick soft-foam mat. It is designed for lounging and "chill" zones. Tethering a heavy PWC to it may tear the modular zippers or damage the foam core; use it strictly for guests or as a transition walkway.

Q: How do I secure the Manta in a current?
A: The unit features 4 reinforced anchor points (one in each corner). We recommend using bungee tethers to connect these to your vessel’s stern cleats or dedicated D-rings. This allows the mat to move with the wake without placing "snatch" loads on the attachment points.

Q: What is the procedure for stowing the mat to ensure it fits back in the bag?
A: To pack it correctly, open the valves and roll the mat toward the valves to force the air out. Close the valves, unroll it, and then perform a final, tight roll before securing it with the compression straps. This "double-roll" method is the only way to achieve the specified 20cm thickness for the storage bag.

Expert Tip: Because the Manta relies on an internal foam core, never store it in a vacuum-sealed bag or under heavy equipment for long periods, as this can "crush" the foam's memory and prevent it from self-inflating properly the next time it’s deployed.
