VESSELS, PLANT & EQUIPMENT FOR HIRE
Our fleet of workboats are available for charter in a variety of different support vessel capacities. Workboats may come crewed or non-crewed and are available for long-term or short-term hire.
Equipment is available to hire – such as a support-work-pontoon and a truck-mounted crane.
Based in Cairns Queensland, our vessels are surveyed to work anywhere in Australia – inside the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This includes the Torres Strait and the Gulf of Carpentaria.
