PORTABOW — Dockside Testing with with Bayfield 25 ft Sailboat

2026-01-22

This video documents dockside validation testing of the PortaBow portable docking-assist system on a 25 ft class sailboat.

The test focuses on low-speed marina conditions, evaluating short-burst thrust control and immediate bow response during departure and close-quarters maneuvering.

This footage evaluates:

  • Initial directional response during departure
  • Short-burst thrust precision near docks
  • External housing stability under load
  • Predictable bow control in confined marina space

This test represents a 25 ft sailboat validation platform within early-series operational testing.

Battery not included. Dock-assist use only (short burst duty).
Not a permanently installed propulsion system.
