Dock Box

Dec 5, 2019

Most dock boxes aren’t sturdy enough to sit on. Nor are they too comfortable. Finally! – the Waterside Lounger from Better Way Products is both.

The Waterside Lounger is built just like an offshore boat: heavy-duty fiberglass with a sandwich core construction and a glossy, UV-resistant gelcoat finish.Professional-grade gas lifts with stainless steel latches, a cable stay and a full-length piano hinge ensure a long service life.

Designed for comfort, the Waterside Lounger has a lightly angled and divided backrest. Water drains off the seat thanks to innovative EZDrain system.

It’s a massive 14 cu. ft.storage locker that doubles as a love seat, ideal for a dock, deck, patio or swimming pool. Externally, the Waterside Lounger measures 66″ L x 24″ D x 38″ H and 62″ L x 20″ D x 20″ H, internally.

Available in white, grey and tan, MSRP is US$1,219. Better Way Products is one of the oldest and largest fiberglass manufacturers in the US. It produces over 30 different unique dock boxes and steps to fit and complement any marine décor. www.dockbox.com.
