Can You Have a Pool Table on a Yacht?

If you are someone who spends a lot of time on the water, you might be wondering how you can bring some of your favorite hobbies on board, such as a treadmill, mahjong, or even a pool table. Billiards is an enjoyable pastime but requires a lot of precision and stability that could make it complicated to play on open water.

Who said that pool games at sea are impossible?

Fortunately, many pool tables exist that are gyroscopically controlled, meaning that they have self-leveling technology that keeps the surface of the table flat even amid the movement caused by waves.

There is an unusual partnership that brings together two companies, the French company Billards Toulet and Stable, which operates in Norway where it builds gyroscopes for recreational use. Together, the two companies have succeeded in bringing pool tables on board yachts and superyachts and, what's more, putting a gyroscope inside. And this is an absolute first. The routine on board will never be the same again: relaxation and pool tables are part of the same family. And we bet that some world billiard champions, such as Giampiero Rosanna and Carlo Cifalà, are already thinking about organizing a billiard challenge in a marine environment on board some dream boat.

Featuring a modern design, Billards Toulet's pool table is lined with a French blue carpet, which perfectly matches the marine tones. The designers worked carefully on the aesthetic integration of the stabilizer into the base of the pool table. Fitting perfectly into the shape of the table, the billiard gyroscope can be glimpsed, showing off its typical circular shape.

Considering the technical aspect, Billards Toulet explains that the stabilizer "keeps the pool table in balance despite the movement of the sea, automatically adjusting its position thanks to sensors that calculate its position".

That's not all. Even lovers of classic table football will finally be able to experience the thrill of wrist games. Billards Toulet has announced that they are also working on a foosball table with a built-in stabilizer. Equipped with a goalie marker and satin-finish steel knobs, with a curved and sinuous shape, the foosball table looks beautiful in itself. But it is sure that the pleasure of playing it while sailing will make it even more intriguing.
