New GRP decking gives the facility a more commercial feel as well as enhancing safety and reducing maintenance
With a port that dries out at low tide, Padstow Harbour Commissioners required a pontoon-based berthing system that could safely and evenly take the ground at low tide with the fishing boats alongside. The solution was adding legs.
The Walcon Warrior self-propelled barge has a powerful new crane capable of lifting 10,000kg at a radius of 10 metres.
This year Walcon has been at Dean & Reddyhoff's Portland Marina to complete the first stage of what will ultimately be a five-pier extension adding nearly 300 berths to the 250 already in place.
Working in partnership with a leading marina operator, Walcon Marine has developed three new marina accessories that both look good and are intended to deliver added benefits to boat owners and their vessels.
The project involved the design and build of a floating pedestrian bridge linking the two banks of the ancient Canal de Ponente. From it, residents and tourists have unparalleled views of the neighbouring 2,000-year old Ponte di Tiberio.
Over the coming winter we are undertaking the second phase of a rolling redesign and replace project at Premier Marinas’ Swanwick Marina on the UK’s south coast.
Over the next two winters we will be undertaking a refurbishment and extension of a marina we first worked on 50 years ago

Walcon Marine has worked closely with The Trafalgar group on unique project at Thornham Marina near Chichester, Hampshire. This involved the design and build of individual, stylised, high-quality pontoons to provide the base platforms for luxury floating accommodation boats.
Our Dutch partner W2 Support has been busy with maintenance work.
This project involved extending piers A, B and C out to the existing mid-river pontoons to integrate them into the main marina layout. The site is a challenging one with little space for manoeuvring the piling barge.
Premiere Marina’s Brighton location is a particularly special one for us. We returned there to reinstate the pontoons that we had temporarily removed while the West Quay marina village development with its mix of leisure and accommodation space was being built.
A new berthing facility by Walcon Marine for vessels operated by the Royal Oman Police Coast Guard is in its final stages of completion. The facility forms part of a major new Coast Guard Harbour which is being built in the town of Sidab, a short distance to the east of Muscat on the Gulf of Oman.
Walcon Marine has installed a maximum heavy-duty berthing facility at ABP’s Hamilton Dock at Lowestoft, on the UK’s east coast, for use by wind farm support vessels
