Swede Ship Marine acquired the SUBLIFT boat hoist operation

12/3/2014

In 2014 Swede Ship Marine acquired the SUBLIFT boat hoist operation. A new company has been formed called Swede Ship Sublift AB. The first deliveries of boat hoists from the yard at Djupvik on the island of Tjörn, Sweden to customers in Sweden and Norway took place in the autumn 2014.

SUBLIFT's origin is the in Sweden well known "Slamkryparen", the so called "Mudskipper". It is a design with a unique submersible function bringing boats up from the water on a slipway to a storage location on land and back. It is a compact motorized hydraulically controlled all in one solution that replaces cranes and tractors giving a low total investment cost. In particular SUBLIFT offers safe handling of boats without high lifting and unsafe transits from for instance crane to wagon or from wagon to cradle that can lead to incidents or in the worst case accident. The boat hoist is easily adapted to different hull widths. The U-shaped frame straddles cradles alternatively blocks and supports that can be put in place before lowering the vessel. Both sail- and powerboats are managed without conversion between boat lifts. SUBLIFT is relatively easy to operate via the wireless controller, even by the non-professional on e.g. a boat club. The compact design maneuvers very well especially in confined spaces.

When vessels are parked in a fish bone pattern they can be parked and picked up individually. SUBLIFT provides services and training how to run and manage the boat hoist at dry docking and launching as well as efficient parking of boats. The company can also assist in the design of ramps and investigation of seafloor conditions for slipways. More than 170 boat hoists have been delivered to the nonprofit yacht clubs, commercial marinas as well as governments around the world. Four boat hoists with lifting capacity 12, 25, 40 and 75 ton is marketed. More information is available on the website swedeship.se

Swede Ship design and manufacture advanced quality boats mainly in the size 10 to 30 meters in steel, aluminum and composites. New designs covers rescue vessels, patrol and surveillance crafts, wind farm and work boats as well as passenger vessels. Recent deliveries are fast 27 meter patrol boats for the GCC area and the Swedish and Norwegian rescue societies SSRS and RS. In 2014 from the wharf in Hunnebostrand and Djupvik three in a series of five 14 meter composite rescue boats has been manufactured and delivered to RS in the so called Bergen's class.

At all three locations, Swede Ship Yacht Service in Gothenburg, Swede Ship Composite in Hunnebostrand and in the Djupvik yard, repair, service, replacement of motors and more is provided to both professional and private customers.
