Austal Australia
Leaders in Ship Care and RepairBrian KellerCairns – Mobile Boat Hoist
In June 2019 Austal Cairns commissioned the Pacific’s largest Mobile Boat Hoist. Capable of moving 1120 tonnes, the Italian built seven story high hoist is able to lift vessels straight out of the water for transfer to hard stands or maintenance halls and offers greater flexibility and improved scheduling, capacity and efficiencies for cruising yacht clients.
Austal Australia has always had an impressive refit capability complete with a 1200 tonne rail slipway (80m LOA and 22 metre beam) and over 360 metres of serviced wharf space.
Austal provides and operates a complete marine repair and refit facility, established to service Defence, Commercial and Luxury Vessels operating around Australia, East Asia & South Pacific Region.
