Returning to Dover – Access pontoons in The Port of Dover

1 minute read

Back in November 2020 we posted a blog regarding a temporary access walkway in Dover Marina that pontoon is still fairing well and providing mariners with access to their boats on a daily basis. And now we have a second walkway being utilised in the marina linking two of the existing moorings.

Our crew were onsite last week supplying a 33×2.5m pontoon with combisafe edge protection which has been topped with decking boards in order to keep it on the same aesthetic as the existing pontoons.

You can see how it all went together right here on our Instagram page.

We’ve recently been onsite at an indoor reservoir near Southampton, providing floating access for roof strengthening works. The challenge presented to us came from the restricted access. The reservoir itself is built above ground, but is enclosed within the building, meaning there was no conventional way to launch the pontoon onto the water. Instead, theContinue reading "Returning to Dover – Access pontoons in The Port of Dover"

Floating Pontoons for Lifting Equipment
