SEAHAM MARINA ADDS A ROODBERG YACHT CRANE


improvements is a Roodberg 20-tonne yacht lifting crane supplied by UK Distributor The Pontoon & Dock Company.


T Just in time for winter, the


newly installed crane along with the Roodberg boat mover HBC 20 makes light work of transferring boats from sea to land and moving them into the storage area. The crane has 4-hooks to move vessels horizontally for more control and extra stability so it gives extra peace of mind to boat owners. The Roodberg 20- tonne crane is simple to use


he top piece of equipment for Seaham Marina’s 2016 planned


especially as the electrical operation requires only one person. The Roodberg crane is part of huge improvements at Seaham Marina now in progress after successfully winning £1.7 million of funding from the Coastal Communities Fund. In addition to improving facilities for berth owners, the money will be used to develop a marine activities centre. This will make the whole marina more attractive to the local community. This is the third new


permanent crane The Pontoon and Dock Company has supplied this year. Investing in a crane to lift boats in and out of the water attracts boat owners to a marina


for wintering, routine maintenance and in emergencies, while for racing yachts it’s every time they race. “It’s easy to see why having a


permanent crane sets Seaham Marina apart from those who hire cranes as it will attract extra business,” says Managing Director of Pontoon and Dock, Dan Bryant. Marina Manager at Seaham


Marina Lisa Simpson added: “Once operational the Roodberg 20-tonne crane will be a significant asset to our operations. It will enhance our existing facilities including our storage and boat maintenance facility at Seaham Marina.”
