marina<br />

rebuilds<br />

with hoist<br />

dock<br />

Boat owners in the southern<br />

California region now have a new<br />

boat servicing option with the<br />

installation of a 100 ton travel lift pier<br />

at The BoatYard at <strong>Marina</strong> del Rey.<br />

The new Marine Travelift machine<br />

has opened the facility up to a much<br />

larger market that includes fishing<br />

boats and catamarans.<br />

The lift sits on one of three new fixed<br />

concrete piers built by Bellingham<br />

Marine. The piers have 35 ton, 100 ton<br />

and 135 ton capacities. Bellingham<br />

also built the new 114-slip marina with<br />

new concrete floating docks, aluminium<br />

gangways and modern dockside<br />

utilities. The majority of the original<br />

concrete guide piles were retained.<br />

Construction took place in phases,<br />

one dock at a time, so as to enable the<br />

majority of the boaters to stay in the<br />

marina during the rebuild.<br />

Al Dar Marine worked with PMS Turkey to develop a unique concept of mini private<br />

docks for its Pearl Qatar beach villas. Each dock is customised to suit the owner’s needs<br />

and usually comprises three jetski moorings, a boatlift and a 50m² (538ft²) outdoor<br />

dining area. The concept is in high demand and is much appreciated by the Pearl Qatar<br />

Authority as it gives owners immediate private access to their vessels and reduces the<br />

pressure on slipways. E: info@pms.com.tr<br />

First leisure craft haul-out<br />

in Indonesia<br />

Medana Bay <strong>Marina</strong> on the island of Lombok in Indonesia has opened a new<br />

haul-out facility with a Roodberg HBC38 hydraulic trailer. The machine was<br />

delivered just before the series of earthquakes tragically erupted in July/August<br />

last year, which delayed installation and tests until the end of November.<br />

The facility, which is the first<br />

recreational craft haul-out in Indonesia<br />

capable of handling keeled yachts,<br />

fills a significant market gap between<br />

Darwin, Australia and Singapore.<br />

Also first-of-kind in the region is the<br />

Roodberg trailer, which can handle<br />

weights up to 38 tonnes and vessels<br />

draft of 2.5m (8ft).<br />

Medana Bay <strong>Marina</strong> put the<br />

machine to work immediately,<br />

successfully hauling out two<br />

monohulls in December. All<br />

vessels lifted can undergo a<br />

variety of maintenance work<br />

including painting, body work<br />

and repairs on site, and can be<br />

safely stored on hardstand.<br />

A family-run business that<br />

has hosted the Sail Indonesia<br />

Rally since 2009, the marina<br />

offers a beautiful hotel,<br />

beachside restaurant and<br />

function hall, and is fully equipped<br />

for yachting services. In addition to<br />

the slipway and haul-out, it has 15<br />

moorings and six full service berths.<br />

Fuel, boat cleaning, repairs and LPG<br />

refills are all available and long term<br />

mooring facilities are offered.<br />
