About Us
About Buoyant Helm
For the days
you wish
would last.
Born from a love of boating. Made for good company. Buoyant Helm brings a little more ease to life on the water.
Our reason for being
A good day. A few friends.
Nowhere else to be.
The best part of a boat day is rarely the destination. It’s the conversation that keeps going, the swim that turns into an afternoon, and the people who stay a little longer. We started Buoyant Helm to make more room for those moments.
Rooted in the boating life
From family boat days
to Buoyant Helm.
Our story began with time spent helping out on a family boat—the preparation, the upkeep, and the reward of finally getting out on the water together.
That experience stayed with our founder, Jonathan Solis. Living in Miami, where boating is woven into everyday life, he created Buoyant Helm to share the feeling he grew up with: a day outside, good company, and the freedom to slow down.
Today, that spirit shapes the brand and the products we bring to the water.
What matters to us
Bring people together.
A shared place for drinks, stories, and a few more hours with your favorite people.
Keep the day easy.
Practical details that fit the outing, from setting up on the water to packing away at home.
Make time for the water.
Pool afternoons, lake weekends, and boat days. There’s more than one way to find your escape.
Our first chapter · Launched June 2026
Your gathering spot,
afloat.
Our Inflatable Floating Bar puts a shared tabletop, four cup holders, and a center opening for a cooler or bucket right where the group wants to be. When the day is done, it deflates for storage and the next outing.
A simple idea for making a day on the water feel a little more like your own.
