A proud North Coast company
Gat Leedm Marine started as New Pacifica in 2000 and operated in Prince Rupert for a number of years before the Metlakatla Development Corporation and Ron Brinkhurst of Tidal Coast Terminals purchased the company, expanding its offerings. In 2018, Lax Kw’alaams Business Development joined with the existing partners to also assume an ownership role with the company.
With 15 years of float construction experience, Gat Leedm Marine has a proven track record of marine construction projects that stand the test of time on the North Coast. From Marina refit projects to individual float construction, we supply users with a superior product that is second to none.
Gat Leedm Marine can offer a full suite of services to our customers that include engineering, design, pile driving and other infrastructure to ensure your new project will remain sound and handle the North Coast elements for years to come.
Our floats are:
• Environmentally safe: Concrete is chemically inert and doesn’t react easily with other substrates;
• Rigid: Our floats are built on land to reduce the stress put on lifting and sliding;
• Insurable: Unsinkable and noncombustible; and
• Customized: Utility chases, serviceready and building envelopes are among the services we offer.
Sawmill/custom cut timbers
Located just off the waters of the Pacific sits Gat Leedm Marine’s millwork shop. At 4,800 square feet, our shop holds a large variety of products and is capable of milling, shaping and planning to meet your needs. Our lumber is stickered and stacked in an air-dried manner where most of the moisture is naturally removed over time as to reduce checking.
Our mill location relative to Tidal Coast Terminal log yard has a major advantage in terms of log supply. The two sites are directly adjacent
to each other reducing logistics and trucking costs. This important business relationship allows Gat Leedm Marine to make an assortment of North Coast species available to our clients. Each tree is unique. The ability to source specific logs to meet our clients’ needs is just one more reason to have us fill your orders. Our sawyers have decades of experience, which is evident from the superior cut quality of all timber that leaves the mill.
At Gat Leedm Marine, our mission is to provide a quality product that stands up to the North Coast elements in a safe, sustainable and environmentally conscious way. It’s what we strive for, and it’s what we deliver.
