Over 2,000 Quantums Since beginning production of its Quantum marina service pedestals around a year ago, Rolec Services Ltd has supplied more than 2,000 to projects worldwide. Dean & Reddyhoff’s Haslar Marina in Portsmouth became the first marina in the UK to install pedestals from the Quantum range. As part of its £1.5 million refurbishment programme, the marina installed 150 of the innovative, anodised aluminium, Quantum pedestals on to its pontoon system. The pedestals have also been in demand far and wide around the world, with locations including: Marina Nou Fontana, Alicante – Quantum pedestals to service 200 berths; Port of Tangier Ville, Morocco – Quantums ordered to service 1,000 berths at the country’s Tanja Marina Bay site; Carrickfergus Waterfront – a range of silver Quantum pedestals

Now, in collaboration with the Biomedicine Healthcare Group of Companies and CrossBorderMedCare, Athens Marina has created a loyalty card


for its customers featuring the following services: 24-hour medical emergency cover; specifically catered check-ups; diagnostic tests; dental services; and visits to doctors specialising in a range of medical conditions.


New buoys for Maltese ports Transport Malta has improved its marine aids to navigation with 20 new buoys, supplied by Almarin, in collaboration with its local partner Boat Maintenance. Four buoys are located in Valletta, four in Marsaxlokk, one in Marsalforn, one in Gozo island and another in Comino island. The remaining nine will be stored as replacement buoys. These buoys are part of the


Balizamar CT range except one, which is B1600S due to the depth of the area. These marine aids to navigation are manufactured with a galvanised steel structure and a roto-moulded polyethylene hull filled with expanded polystyrene foam.


All the buoys have been


supplied with M650 and M860 self-contained lanterns, chains and sinkers.
