Pacific Marine Center Expands Capabilities With New Marine Travelift 200CII Boat Hoist (200 TON CAPACITY)
Marine Travelift Inc. has announced the delivery of its 200CII mobile boat hoist to Pacific Marine Center for use at their facility in Anacortes, Washington. Pacific Marine Center is a full service boat yard handling commercial fishing boats, tugs, and pleasure craft. There were two major goals Pacific Marine Center wanted to accomplish with the purchase of the new 200CII boat hoist according to Dave Marshall, Sales Manager at Kendrick Equipment the certified Marine Travelift distributor for the Northwest region of North America. “The customer wanted to penetrate new markets and attract an entirely new class of boat to Anacortes,” Marshall explained. “With the Marine Travelift mobile boat hoist they can pick full capacity with the slings in any position, allowing them to target the shorter and heavier fishing boats they haven’t been able to haul in the past. Expanding their capabilities and targeting these specific size fishing boats is also allowing Pacific Marine Center to accomplishing a second goal of theirs. “Another goal they had was to build a fishing vessel repair business in Anacortes, a gateway to the Pacific Ocean,” said Marshall. “The new mobile boat hoist will allow them to service a strong fleet of commercial vessels that operate throughout Alaska, Canada and the San Juans.” Read the Press Release here 13:46
