Description

On the coast of New South Wales in one of Australia’s most popular holiday destinations, you’ll find Port Macquarie Marina. Surrounded by breathtaking beaches and pristine waters, there are plenty of opportunities to relax and unwind.

The marina can accommodate boats up to 25m and offers both long-term and short-term moorage. Featuring Unifloat concrete pontoons, the marina serves as a valuable stopover for transient vessels.

Project overview

Bellingham Marine was contracted in May 2016 to retrofit Port Macquarie Marina’s existing C-arm in New South Wales, Australia, with modern pontoons, services and technology, and to build a new 14-berth D-arm.

  • C-arm was treated as repair and maintenance, so work started straight away.
  • Approval for the new D-arm only came through in late October 2016. Bellingham re-cast the pontoons at its Brisbane plant and installed them before Christmas – about six weeks of construction.
  • The marina stayed open for the busy summer season, and the 14 new berths added revenue straight away.
