product review 2016

product review 2016 Global sales for mooring solution Following its launch in late 2015 and introduction to the international market via Marina World, Pile Ring received a great many enquiries from marina operators all over the globe in 2016 and appointed agents in the UK and USA. Developed in New Zealand as an industry first, Pile Ring is a onepiece flotation device that provides monitor-free mooring with permanently tight lines. It thus protects boats and dock systems in all conditions and also reduces maintenance by alleviating the chafing of mooring lines on pilings and reducing the build up of marine growth. Superior delivered boutique marina Superior Jetties started work to engineer and build a 50-berth boutique marina at Koolewong on the central coast of NSW, Australia. Ten catamaran berths and ten visitor berths are in the mix and there is space to double the size of the marina in five years subject to permissions. South American expansion Portuguese company Grupo Lindley opened Lindley BR, a subsidiary in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The new company focuses on the design, manufacture, installation and maintenance of floating equipment, aids to navigation and port equipment. Global insurance London-based Lloyd’s insurance syndicate and international insurer Markel International launched a new range of bespoke marina and marine trades insurance products. Developed by underwriters Stephen Loader and Holley Pizzey, the policies are available worldwide via local insurance brokers. The Golden Deck Lift gives secure 360° access to a floating vessel and above-water boat storage. Designed to blend seamlessly with the main docks, units are tailormade to meet a wide range of lift capacities. • A special floating dock system was introduced by Italia Marine to complement its proven Marine Service Lift. The new generation Boat Service Lift (BSL) gives the yard operator the opportunity to work on a vessel hull or its propulsion system without using up valuable land space, paying expensive diving contractors, risking water pollution or relying on cranes, hoists or trolley supports. Dredging innovations • Recognising that dewatering is a major obstacle encountered by dredging contractors all around the world, Wisconsin-based company IMS purchased patent pending GeoPool dredge dewatering technology. Claimed to be inexpensive, reusable and scalable, the technology, in most cases, does not require polymers. It was invented by an IMS Versi- Dredge customer and underwent successful trials in the USA and Europe. Several GeoPools have since been sold. • Rose City Yacht Club, an established private marina and social club on the Columbia River in Portland, Oregon put a new Badger class dredger from Louisiana-based DSC Dredge Marine Travelift designed the new 85 BFMII boat hoist to lift heavier vessels. It features a new slew bearing system with easy access grease points and sealed housing and the Parker IQAN intelligent diagnostics system. into service. The machine was purchased by the club to replace an older dredger in use for over 20 years. The Badger is an 8in (20cm) cutter suction conventional style machine whose compact size and manoeuvrability are ideally suited to marina operations. Its Metso pump produces more than enough volume of material and static head to accommodate the parameters required by the marina. • A highly manoeuvrable and easily transportable sediment removal system was developed by Kansas-based Geoform International to access areas impossible to reach with excavators or hydraulic dredgers. Named Dino Six, the machine measures 21ft (6.4m) long x 71 in (180cm) wide x 64in (162cm) high and weighs just 3,800lbs (1,724kg). It can be lifted in and out of the water easily and loaded onto a trailer, does not disturb the shoreline and leaves no footprint that needs to be repaired.
