MDL Marinas has significantly upgraded its lifting operations at Northney Marina with the addition of a powerful 35-ton hoist, following a £400,000 investment.
Since its installation earlier this year, the hoist has already made a notable impact, enabling the safe and efficient handling of larger vessels, streamlining daily operations for the marina team and enhancing the overall service experience for customers. Supplied by industry leader Marine Travelift, the hoist features an extended beam and remote-control functionality, improving both safety and the speed and precision of lifting operations.
“This equipment is a game-changer for us,” says Tom Ward, Marina Manager at Northney Marina. “The new hoist allows us to support a wider range of vessels and deliver an even better service to our berth holders and visitors. Its speed, power and ease of operation have already made a big difference to the way we work and support our customers.”
Stephan Chayer, Managing Director of International Sales at Marine Travelift, adds: “We’re proud to partner with MDL Marinas on this project. The 35-ton hoist at Northney is a great example of how modern equipment can transform marina operations, offering precision, safety and speed. We’re confident it will serve the marina and its customers exceptionally well for many years to come.”
