Innovation and collaboration FROM THE EDITOR There’s no question that 2015 was a good year for product innovation and industry collaboration, and a special year for certain companies. Martini Alfredo celebrated 70 years; Polyform of Norway marked 60 years; and Rolec reached its quarter century. SF Marina launched a new tug and superyacht berthing system; Ingemar researched a radical new system of floating breakwater; Bellingham Marine initiated the patent process for its new FRP through-rod and nut system; and Poralu launched a range of concrete floats. Dura Composites boosted its portfolio with composite timber pontoon fenders; Superior released a designer handrail system, the Edge II; and Perma Composites launched Rapid Deck, a low maintenance modular composite material that withstands high loads. In the boatyard sector, Kleeco products were upgraded further to a company buy-out by Frisian Industries, and Italian company Boat Lift entered into a sales collaboration with US Hoists of Calverton, New York. Marine Travelift released the M2800, its largest lift capacity forklift in the Mariner series and Eden Technology introduced the Electrical Trollift. US-based Scribble Software launched MarinaOffice 7.8 and a new company, Molo, launched a marina management platform on iPad and web to facilitate reservations and more at marinas of all sizes. Candock launched the G2 Jetslide for jetski rental operators and HydroHoist released the HP Pro, a new PWC dock. New Spanish company, Click&Go, began international marketing of its in-berth boatlift system. DualDocker expanded its range of specialist mooring options with Single Point Mooring Solutions and Telescopic Piles, and Monumental Plastics of New Zealand released PileRing; a one-piece moulded mooring ring for pile moorings. Further innovations of note included the Greencube modular floating toilet block pontoon from Poralu company CEI; Beta Fueling System’s solar powered fuel dispenser cart; and the 7012HP Jetmaster Versi-Dredge from IMS, a three-in-one machine offering jet excavation, water injection and environmental dredging. Dockside pedestal manufacturers are amongst the keenest R&D advocates year on year. Comsen of Australia released a new aluminium pedestal range called Extreme and Marcello Giampiccolo of Italy launched Leonardo, a pedestal offering multiple services – such as air conditioning – to earn the marina operator additional revenue. Eaton added SMART notification to the ground fault safety in its Lighthouse pedestal range and Rolec launched a new aluminium pedestal range at the Dubai Boat Show in March and the Quantum at METSTRADE 2015 in November. Many of these products will receive further profiling this year, more innovations are covered in the Products & Services section of this issue, and 2016 will doubtless bring other revelations. An ideal way to kick start your annual quest for new equipment is to visit the 2016 International Marina & Boatyard Conference (IMBC) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (27th-29th January). Visit the Marina World team on booth 410. We look forward to seeing you. Happy New Year! Carol Fulford Editor www.marinaworld.com - January/February 2016 5 MW2016JanFeb.indd 5 05/01/2016 09:31:47
