– makes it easier for people with disabilities to swim and get ashore at a high dock

Description
An accessible boat is equipped with a lift with chair at the stern of the boat.

Authors comments
The lift is used as a swim platform for people with disabilities. The user also rides on it to get in and out of the boat when he ties up at a high dock. He transfers to the lift chair and takes the wheelchair with him.
