The floating dry dock is 140 feet long with 42 feet between the 26-foot tall wing walls. The dock has a rated lifting capacity of 1000 LT at 5 LT/ft of keel block loading. It is segregated into pairs of compartments with a safety deck 6′ above the pontoon deck. The design incorporates features such as side access doors through wing walls for moving machinery, pumping system, generator and control housing.
Allen marines floating dry dock provides marina operators and boat yard owners with a unique solution to the ever increasing loss of premium water front land to residential and commercial development.
Allen Marine changes the way boat owners think about marine maintenance. Why take a boat out of the water for the traditional winter haul out and then sail for the rest of the year with a dirty hull when you can enjoy regular hull cleaning and maintenance with Allen Marine throughout the year and save money?
The high throughput of our docks (boats per day) yields excellent returns on investment when compared to traditional alternatives such as travel lifts and cranes. Installation is straightforward, without the need for expensive civil engineering works usually associated with installing a travel lift.
If you already have a travel lift installed, Allen Marine will complement your existing facilities by enabling you to offer fast cleaning, diagnostic and surveying services whilst optimizing the use of existing, shore based facilities for longer term jobs such as re-fits and engine replacement – a combination that will attract more boat owners and increase customer satisfaction levels.
Our eco-friendly platform represents a major breakthrough in boat lifting equipment. It is a completely self-contained unit capable of lifting vessels weighing up to 1000 tons.
Features:
Fast: Lifts 1000 tons in a short time using Allen Marines unique pneumatic lifting system. Lift, clean and re-launch in less time.
Eco-Friendly: Allen Marine floating dry dock is eco-friendly. All wash off from the cleaning operation is collected and disposed of strictly in accordance with local environmental laws. This is achieved by pumping the wash off from our integrated slurry tank to existing shore-based facilities or by installing our optional on board water treatment plant.
Efficient: With Allen Marine, floating dry dock marina operators and investors can achieve high returns on their investment by offering a fast cost effective alternative to the traditional annual haul out onto hard standing.
Economical: Very low running costs.
Diesel air compressor only required
