For boat storage and repair services, Ascom marine jib cranes, which are available in single or four-arm versions, offer simple handling at low cost, while still maintaining high levels of quality and performance.

Being powered by electric motors, the cranes are 100% ‘green’ and require minimal, simple maintenance.
Safe and smooth in operation, Ascom’s robust design features a gear motor powered via an inverter to minimise any pendulum effect during start and stop of rotation when a boat is suspended in the slings. Electric or manual self-centring trolleys allow various positioning possibilities according to customers’ requirements and an automatic overload system prevents cranes from attempting to lift boats above their weight capacity, which ranges from 10-100 metric tons. All crane functions can be remotely controlled by radio.
Anti-corrosion protection prevents rust and corrosion even under the harshest weather conditions and there is a choice of paint colours.
An option provided by Ascom is the installation of LED lights to illuminate the dock area during nightshifts or in case of reduced visibility.
